Committee

Welcome to the Interfinish 2020 World Congress


On behalf of the Congress International Organizing Committee, I would like to invite you to Interfinish2020, which will be held as an All-VIRTUAL Congress from September 6-8, 2021.

Interfinish has a long history, dating back to the 1930s, and the term “World Interfinish” was first officially used in 1954 when it was held in London as the 4th Congress, and the last time it was held in Japan was in 1980. This year, for the first time in 40 years, Interfinish will be held in Japan as an all-virtual congress. To be precise, the Japanese community will be in charge of organizing Interfinish 2020. Nevertheless, we are excited to bring Interfinish2020 to your shores through our online presence, and we will work hard to ensure that Interfinish2020 maintains high standards and quality and is a rewarding and exciting experience.

Interfinish2020 will continue to play a role in welcoming scientists and engineers from around the world, strengthening fundamental research activities in the field of surface finishing, and leading to advanced applications. Interfinish2020 is also unique in that it has the participation and support of many companies, based on their strong interest, and covers a very wide range of surface finishing disciplines, leading to diverse innovations. In particular, the theme of this year’s conference is “Surface Science and Engineering for the SDGs” and the topics cover surface treatment technology, industrial applications, surface analysis and characterization, environmental and production management, biofouling, evaluation, surface finishing, and overall surface functionality. We are convinced that Interfinish2020 will not only provide a useful and attractive opportunity for scientists, engineers and students to present their latest results and engage in fruitful discussions, but also contribute significantly to the realization of the SDGs goals as well as to the self-sustaining progress of humanity by solving many scientific and technological problems in all areas of the world.

Interfinish2020 promises to be a memorable and unforgettable one with its high-quality technical program and excellent opportunities for virtual encounters and discussions.
We look forward to welcoming you to Interfinish2020.

Chairman of the Organizing Committee for the 20th Interfinish World Congress
