SUMMARY:Webinar: Rubber Industry Supply Chains
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, November 5\, 2026; 1 p.m. – 3 p.m. ET \nWebinar Overview: Traditionally\, rubber industry supply chain actions are conducted by purchasing\, whereas RD\, engineering and customer service functions do not participate.  Meanwhile\, modern complexity of the rubber industry and its entangled global supply chains make our products vulnerable to the current volatility of political situations and economics. Disruptions of supply chains reverberate all the way down to rubber manufacturing and to customers\, and it could bring major national industries to standstill. \nWebinar Objective: The objective of this course is to promote awareness of supply chains effects on rubber processes\, quality of products and final costs. Based on her personal experience as a chemist\, plant engineer\, manager and global consultant working for the rubber industry and in academia in the USA\, Europe and Asia\, the instructor will review risks and pathways to ensure supply chains resilience\, manufacturing flexibility and cost control. \nWebinar Content: \n\nSupply chains components and functions\nSignificance of rubber products for the national economy\nRubber industry raw materials: types\, functions and sources\nSupply chain management:\n\nRisk management\nRaw materials multi-sourcing\nInventories resilience\nManagement of change: objectives\, layout and costs\n\n\n\nTo achieve production cost efficiency and rubber product quality\, the supply chain management team must include purchasing\, engineering and technical departments of committed and educated professionals. \nWho should attend:  Purchasing agents\, chemists\, product and process engineers\, quality professionals and managers will find this course useful. Participation of teams\, including purchasing\, engineering\, chemical\, processing\, quality and marketing/sales functions is encouraged. \nPrice: Free for Members / $149 Non-members \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER. \nInstructor: Dr. Irene Yurovska \nIrene Yurovska was born and raised in Moscow\, Russia. After completing her BS in Chemistry\, MS in Chemical Engineering (Rubber Technology) and PhD in Physical Chemistry of Polymers\, she worked as a scientist for the Rubber Industry Institute and for the Institute of Aircraft Technology in Moscow. \nIrene moved with her family to the US in 1991. For ten years\, she lived in Rhode Island\, working as a plant rubber chemist for Teknor Apex and completing her MBA in Bryant University. Irene moved to Massachusetts to be employed for 14 years as a scientist\, technical service and applications specialist by Cabot Corporation in Billerica\, MA. In 2016-2017\, Dr. Yurovska worked as a Global Innovation Market Development Manager for Addivant Corporation (now SI Group) in CT. \nCurrently\, after completing the long and successful career as a global rubber industry professional; having hands-on experience with rubber compounding\, processing and technical service\, and with carbon black and antioxidants manufacturing and properties\, Dr. Irene Yurovska lives in TX\, recently being employed in India as VP of Himadri Specialty Chemicals (technical service in carbon black for rubbers) and currently developing a private consulting business for the global rubber industry. \nHer scientific interests include relationships between individual characteristics of ingredients and application properties of rubber products. Dr. Yurovska is the author and co-author of several patents and numerous articles in peer-reviewed and industrial publications. \nDr. Yurovska is an active member of the US rubber industry community\, being on several Rubber Division\, ACS committees\, she served as a Chair of the New England Rubber and Plastics Group and she is on the Board of NERPG and is also a member of the Energy Polymer Group. \nIrene has two children and one grandchild. She enjoys spending time with her family\, world travel\, swimming\, and classic opera.
