SUMMARY:Webinar Recording: iFormulate Introduces Fluid Bed Processing
DESCRIPTION:Image courtesy of Neuhaus Neotec \nFluid bed technology has a wide variety of uses in formulation and chemical processing in general. For instance fluid beds can be used to agglomerate drying particles to give you granules with optimal flow\, compression or redispersion properties. If you are looking to encapsulate a substance then particle coating can be carried out in a fluid bed dryer. Fluid bed is a versatile technology that can be used for many applications in – for example – pharmaceuticals\, agrochemicals\, food\, inorganics and detergents. If you’d like a concise overview of how fluid bed processing works why not take a look at the recording of our webinar “iFormulate introduces Fluid Bed Processing”. In the webinar\, we’ll be joined once again by Professor David York of the University of Leeds. \nTo view the webinar recording and download the slides\, please go to the recording page here. \nFor those of you who’d appreciate a more in-depth introduction then we’re delighted to announce a new three-day course delivered by the University of Leeds and supported by iFormulate. Registration is now open here and the course will run from 15th-17th May 2019.

SUMMARY:Formula X 2019
DESCRIPTION:iFormulate is pleased to be supporting Formula X\, the latest in the Formula series of international formulation conferences to be held in Manchester in June 2019. \nFormula X will continue the tradition of bringing together the best industrial and academic science and engineering which are accelerating the application of formulation across Europe. \nThe conference theme of “Understand\, Formulate\, Innovate” highlights the direction of travel for the formulating industries where more research and development is now aimed at developing the understanding before formulation occurs\, which is driving new types of innovation.  While traditional formulation science research is still important it is now being applied to more and more complex formulations\, and even for the most complex formulation digital techniques are being used to limit the formulation space that needs to be explored.  Formula X will once again cover a broad range of formulating industries and the domain specific understanding which is key to successful formulation will be continue to a focus\, the session chairs will also be tasked with highlighting cross-domain learning. \nFormula X will commence at 2pm on Monday 24th June and formally end with lunch at 2pm on Thursday 27th. \nThe organising committee are looking forward to welcoming you to Manchester in June. \nClick here to Register for Formula X \nIn collaboration with the organisers of Formula X\, iFormulate is running a FREE 2-hour interactive workshop “Design for Formulation” on 25th June. The workshop will introduce some of the principles of good formulation design and tell you how you can practically get started. Click here for more details of the workshop and to register. Note that registration is separate from Formula X. \n

SUMMARY:Biopesticide Summit 2019
DESCRIPTION:The world of plant protection is changing rapidly with many interesting new approaches entering the market. For this reason Bionema Limited and Swansea University are to host the inaugural Biopesticide Summit in July 2019. The organisers expect to address the pressing need to develop alternatives to chemical crop protection.\nThe Summit will also include the Biopesticide Awards which celebrate the achievement\, excellence\, and the contribution industry and research communities make to the biocontrol community. \nThe Biopesticide Summit 2019 will focus on developing and introducing innovative and alternative biocontrol solutions that will help protect our food chain in a controlled but timely manner. \nThe global biopesticides market is growing rapidly. It was worth approximately $3.36 billion in 2016 and is projected to reach $8.82 billion by 2022. However\, despite significant growth in the biocontrol industry\, major limitations with current biopesticide solutions are rarely discussed. There is an urgent need to develop novel products and application technologies to not only “fill the gaps” in the market due to pesticide removal but also to anticipate future requirements as pests and diseases are developing resistance to currently used chemical products.  In additional\, there is increasing consumer led retailer demand for growers to eradicate the use of chemical pesticides in crop production and to grow fruit and vegetables with reduced detectable residues. \nOne challenge particularly dear to our hearts at iFormulate is that of formulating biopesticides effectively. At the Summit\, iFormulate’s Dr David Calvert will discuss the increasing need to improve biopesticide performance through formulation science and technology. Formulation can bring benefits in terms of delivery mechanism\, release profile and stability amongst other key properties. In his presentation\, David will discuss will review the differences between biopesticides and conventional pesticide active ingredients and outline how these can lead to differing formulation strategies. He will also outline how formulation technology can be used to resolve some of the stability issues concerning the common microbial biopesticide\, Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) \nYou can find registration and other details on the Biopesticide Summit here. \n

SUMMARY:Formulation: The Basics
DESCRIPTION:This is a past event. For upcoming training on this subject\, please go to the event web page.\n  \nFormulation is an essential value-adding step in the development and manufacture of a huge number of chemical-using products. For example\, medicines\, cosmetics\, toiletries\, foods\, detergents\, cleaners\, paints\, inks\, agrochemicals and adhesives are all formulated products. FORMULATION: THE BASICS is a one day introduction to formulation – what it is\, where it is done\, its benefits as well as why and how it is done. \nFORMULATION: THE BASICS was sold out when it was first run in 2018 and we received overwhelmingly positive feedback from the delegates. \n\nWHO IS IT FOR? \nFORMULATION: THE BASICS is especially suited to: \n\nCommercial\, production\, technical or administrative staff in any company involved in the formulation supply chain.\nNewcomers to R&D and production functions such as technicians\, process operatives\, QC and administrative staff.\nStudents and academics from non-chemistry disciplines who are seeking an industrial context to formulation.\n\n\nSome basic scientific understanding will be helpful but is not essential. A chemistry degree is not required! \nFor more details and registration go to our booking webpage here.

SUMMARY:Design of Experiments for Formulators
DESCRIPTION:This is a past event. If you are interested in training on this subject\, please contact info@iformulate.biz.\n\nJurys Inn\, East Midlands Airport\, UK \nDecember 3rd – 4th 2019 \nFormulations are complex products with multiple components and phases. Also\, we usually need to balance several performance properties to deliver the optimum product. No wonder that the traditional “one variable at a time” approach to product optimisation often fails. \nFirst run in 2018\, DESIGN OF EXPERIMENTS FOR FORMULATORS is a two-day course which will improve your practical understanding of statistical experimental design (DoE) and how it can be applied to improve and develop your formulations.: \nDESIGN OF EXPERIMENTS FOR FORMULATORS is very suitable for:\n– Those involved in all aspects of formulation\, from researchers\, through to product developers\, scale-up engineers and process engineers in manufacturing.\n– Those active in all formulating industries areas including inks\, coatings\, agrochemicals\, pharmaceuticals\, food\, drink\, FMCG\, home care and health care. \nDoE software will be used in the course\, but the principles can be applied to all traditional software packages as well as Excel. No serious prior statistical knowledge will be needed. \nFull details including registration and programme information can be found on the event page. \nFor a taster of this course\, have a look at our free webinar here.

SUMMARY:From Science to Shelf - Innovating Through Formulation
DESCRIPTION:21-22 Jan 2020\, SCI Formulation Forum\, London. \n  \nThis event has taken place.  \nDetails here . \nHow can we successfully commercialise our formulation innovations? The innovative application of formulation science in industry has huge potential to create great commercial value and significant benefits for society. But how can a start-up fast track its product development process? How should different organisations partner-up? What must employees\, academics or aspiring entrepreneurial students consider to commercially exploit their inventions? How can large companies innovate against ‘big company inertia’? \nThis is the third two-day workshop organised by SCI’s Formulation Forum and it follows the highly successful ‘Disruptive Innovations’ workshop in January 2019. In that workshop\, we discussed the future of formulation science and how it meets future challenges today. In this workshop\, we will discuss and showcase how today’s ideas can become a commercial reality. Why? Innovation is critical due to rapidly increasing competition in a shrinking world\, constant commoditization and a drive for shorter product lifecycles to deliver faster growth. Companies are engaged in blocking and leap-frogging the competition\, reducing their supplier’s power and reducing the chance of competitor substitutes. \nInternal processes to structure innovation are as important as external services and cooperation. Industry has adopted new innovation models and moved on from the old ivory tower model of R&D to modern debate on exploration versus exploitation\, buying in\, repurposing for new markets or engaging in co-operative projects. \nJoin us in January to partake in thoughtful discussions on how to successfully realise formulation innovations and connect with formulations experts with similar ideas and interests. \n\nATTENDEES\nSCI’s Formulation Forum events are equally open to major companies\, SME’s\, academics and students from all areas\, including scientists\, engineers\, patent attorneys\, marketing experts and business managers with an interest in formulation innovation and science. This event is especially suited to those in academia and industry that are looking to improve their current innovation practices or entrepreneurs and future research employees looking for advice and support.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Particle Engineering using Spray Drying and Fluid Beds
DESCRIPTION:This webinar has taken place. To view the recording please go here. \nFormulators are often challenged to produce solid particulate products with precisely designed application properties. For instance granular products may need to flow easily and disperse quickly in water but must still be strong enough not to break down to a powder during storage or transport. At other times\, particles with distinct internal structure are needed in order to encapsulate and delay the release of an active ingredient. \nUsing spray drying or fluid bed technologies are two popular ways of carrying out particle engineering in order to give us the solid product that we want. In our webinar we provide a brief overview of how these methods work and how they compare when you are looking to design the structure of your particles. \nIn the webinar\, are joined once again by Professor David York of the University of Leeds and by iFormulate’s Dr Jim Bullock. \nFor those of you who’d appreciate a more in-depth introduction into spray drying then take a look at these this course delivered by the University of Leeds and supported by iFormulate: \n\nSpray Drying and Atomisation of Formulations – 2023\n\n
