Clays and construction: 2023 Clay Minerals Group Research-in-Progress meeting
18th May 2023
University of Leeds
This meeting is jointly organized with the Transforming Foundation Industries Network+
This meeting will explore recent advances in understanding the role of clay minerals in construction, and how they can be used to shape and improve the built environment. This topic area spans everything from clay-based renders to improve air quality, the role of clay minerals in geotechnics, calcined clays in low-carbon cements, natural earth building, and much more.
We invite abstracts on any topic in clay mineral science in general, including research-in-progress. We particularly encourage those with interest in the theme of clays and construction, early career researchers, and those working in industry.
Our keynote speaker is Prof. Katja Emmerich, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany:
“Structure of clay minerals, thermal activation and solubility in alkaline solutions”
Online registration is now closed.
