Fourth International Conference on Chemically Activated Materials (CAM2021)

Chemically activated materials as green alternatives to traditional cement and concrete become so popular in the recent decades due to the drivers of carbon neutral and sustainable development. The first International Conference on Chemically Activated Materials (CAM2010) was held in Jinan, China, the second conference (CAM2014) was held in Changsha, China, and the third (CAM2017) was held in Gold Coast, Australian. Many world-leading experts in this area participated and presented their works. Along the great success of the previous three conferences, the 4th CAM conference is to be held in China, and is scheduled at 27-29 August 2021, in a fast developing and beautiful city, Hefei, China. Given the impact of COVID19, it is held virtually for international delegates via online presentations and physically for domestic delegates. The aim of the conference is again to bring together leading experts in this field from around the world to present the recent achievements, share the latest development and success in addressing those challenging problems for CAMs. It is also aimed to promote research, development and applications of chemically activated materials.
