Group characteristics
The Materials Characterization group activities are focused on microstructure, composition, and properties of advanced building materials. The analysis of the effects of natural and artificial aging and severe conditions, such as high temperatures, high mechanical loads, or aggressive chemical substances, on cement- and lime-based composites and geopolymers belongs to the priorities of the group. The team includes materials engineers, physicists and chemists, which provides it with the synergy necessary for the development of new materials and complex assessment of their functional properties.
