The Polymers for Sustainable Future 2024 conference, which was held in Prague, Czech Republic, 24–28 June 2024, reflects current global problems and challenges in the field of polymers and plastics in relation to the environment. The goal of the conference was to bring the latest scientific findings in the field of polymer materials from both academia and industry, reflecting the current global problems associated with the sustainability of polymers and plastic pollution of the Earth.

The conference combined two traditional scientific meetings, the 85th edition of Prague Meeting on Macromolecules (PMM) and the 11th edition of the Green Chemistry and Nanotechnologies in Polymeric Materials (GCNPM). During the conference our partner TECNALIA in collaboration with Denge Kimay presented the oral presentation entitle “New waterborne biobased acrylic binders with water repellency without the use of PFAS“. During the presentation the first results achieved in TORNADO related to waterbased biobased binder were presented.
