1st International Conference on Mg-based Cements

February 10, 2026 to February 12, 2026

Sponsor(s): International Conference on Mg-based Cements

Description:
Meeting: The 1st International Conference on Mg-based Cements will be held February 10-12, 2026, at the Centre Loewenberg, Muten, Switzerland.

Solicited: Magnesium-based cements have the potential to become a major carbon sink in the construction industry. This conference aims to exchange state-of-the-art knowledge on future applications, from binder production to applications such as concrete workability, reaction kinetics, admixtures, hydrates, strength development, and durability and leaching. Topics include magnesium carbonate cements, magnesium silicate cements, magnesium oxychloride/oxysulfate cements, magnesium phosphate cements, and carbonation hardening.

Abstracts will be published in the conference proceedings.

Requirements: One-page abstracts for oral and poster presentations should be submitted to MgO2026@empa.ch.

Deadline: Abstracts are due by July 1, 2025.
