Geopolymer Institute

Twenty five years long, geopolymer science was studied in very few laboratories and institutions. It is only during the last five years that we notice a strong increase in geopolymer research. The actual situation was presented by Prof. J. Davidovits in his 2010 Geopolymer Camp Keynote: State of the Geopolymer 2010. The following map [...]

The GeopolymerCamp 2010, was held on July 7th and 8th at the IUT, University of Picardie, in Saint-Quentin, France. You will find in the report: three Keynote conferences, the list of 9 small communications and photos taken during this event.

Geopolymers using glass produced from DC plasma treatment of air pollution control (APC) residues
As part of a major Technology Strategy Board (UK) funded project Imperial College London, in collaboration with Tetronics Ltd, has completed research on the production of geopolymers from DC plasma treated air pollution control (APC) residues. APC residues are a hazardous waste [...]

The number of scientific papers dealing with geopolymer science & technology is following an exponential growth.

Professor Joseph DAVIDOVITS presents his first course for beginners in geopolymer chemistry and applications.
