Members of our group participated at the 35th International Conference and Exposition on Advanced Ceramics and Composites (link) organised by the American Ceramic Society in Daytona Beach (FL), USA, on Jan. 23-28, 2011. Prof. Boccaccini organised the joint session of symposia 5 (Next Generation Bioceramics) and 9 (Porous Ceramics). In addition he presented the invited talk “Bottom ash-based geopolymer materials: mechanical and environmental properties” in the Session “Geopolymers and Other Inorganic Polymers”, which is a collaboration with the group of Prof. A. Polettini and Ms Roberta Onori (University of Rome “La Sapienza”, Italy). Tayyab Subhani, PhD student based at Imperial College London, UK (Co-supervised by Profs. Milo Shaffer and Bill Lee at Imperial), presented the poster entitled: “Glass Composites Containing Carbon Nanotubes: Processing, Characterisation and Properties”, in the framework of a collaboration with the UK Centre for Advanced Structural Ceramics (CASC) (link).
