SCON Superconductor Technologies Inc

Superconductor Technologies Inc. (STI) (Nasdaq: SCON) will present at the 14th European Conference on Applied Superconductivity (EUCAS) being held in Glasgow, Scotland.

The Conductus® HTS wire program technical lead, Dr. Jeong Huh, will present “2G HTS Coated Conductors: Process Control Improvements at STI” during the Industrial Developments in Coated Conductors session on Monday, Sept. 2, 2019, at 5:45 p.m. local time (12:45 p.m. ET) in the Forth Room. Dr. Huh will review recent developments at STI focused on process control improvements that allow for commercial manufacturing of Conductus wire for magnet applications.

“EUCAS offers an exceptional opportunity to build on our existing relationships with companies that are seeking a reliable supply of high-performance wire to produce new disruptive devices,” said Adam Shelton, STI’s VP of Marketing and Product Line Management. “STI is relentlessly focused on our customers success. We are excited to work with our customers and industry leaders as we transition to supplying meaningful production quantities of Conductus wire for our superconductor magnets customers. We continue to see demand exceeding supply and look forward to working with our customers as they look to procure supply for the coming years.”

About EUCAS EUCAS brings together the scientists, research and industrial communities from around the world. The forum provides an ideal platform to share knowledge and the most recent advances in all areas of applied superconductivity: from large-scale applications to miniature electronics devices, with a traditional focus on advanced materials and conductors. EUCAS is a biannual event aimed at bringing out the most recent scientific developments in the investigation of superconducting materials, and at fostering discussion on new potential applications of superconductivity and on technology transfer to industry.
