SYMPOSIUM and
ROUND TABLE TOPICS
The symposium is focused in glass, glass-ceramics and sol-gel materials and will cover the entire spectrum from basic research to applications in the industrial glass sector and other final users of glassy materials
The topics of the symposium will cover but not limited to:
- Energy and environment
- Different materials and components for fuel cells (PEMFC membranes, sealing glasses and glass-ceramics for MCFC and SOFC)
- Solid electrolytes and electrodes for Li-batteries
- Low temperature sealing in solar energy devices
- Environmentally friendly anticorrosive coatings, mesostructure coatings with photocatalytic activity for abatement of water or gas pollutants
- Solar cells and nano glass-ceramics with photonic applications produced by melting, sol-gel and SPS
- Energy saving is an important issue with different approaches, from industrial glass furnaces to solar and heat control glasses for buildings.
- Furnace technologies and challenges in neutral carbon glass production
- Big glass science
- ITC, Optical fibres, photonics
- Bioglasses, biomaterials of future
- Glass ceramics, applications, astronomy, glass sealing
- Sol-gel materials, coatings, corrosion protection, photonic materials
- Glass and sustainability as related to energy, buildings, transport
- Art in glass
- Glass education, publications and IYOG
- Glass in renewable energies
