The Department of Physical Metallurgy and Materials Testing (Montanuniversität Leoben) hosts the 15th International Metallography Conference 2018.

The conference will report on progress in metallography of metallic, ceramic, polymeric and composite materials as well as coatings featuring the following topics:

A. Preparation methods for subsequent analysis with light optical microscope as well as high-resolution techniques
B. Conventional microstructural characterization
C. Materials characterization by high-resolution techniques
D. Quantitative image analysis
E. Tomography and three-dimensional evaluation and analysis methods
F. Microstructure and materials properties
G. Phase transformations and precipitation processes
H. Microstructure analysis for the assessment of failure

Furthermore, the conference will host an exhibition of modern metallographic equipment and scientific journals and books as well.

The official languages of the conference are German and English.
