E-Tex Staff, Mumbai
The four
textile research associations, Ahmedabad Textile Industry Research Association
(ATIRA), South India Textile Research Association (SITRA), North India Textile
Research Association (NITRA) and Bombay Textile Research Association (BTRA)
will be organising the 45th Technological Joint Conference in February 2004.
The conference will be hosted by BTRA in Mumbai, which also coincides with BTRAs
50 years of service to the industry.
The papers to be presented at the conference will be based on the recent R&D
trends and topics to be discussed will include those of immediate importance
to the industries in all major textile areas. The following technical papers
are scheduled to be presented and discussed during the two-day conference.
ATIRA:
