Special issue on:
[Advanced concrete technology for circular economy]

“1st International Conference on Mg-based cements.”

Editors:
Barbara Lothenbach, Ellina Bernard & Frank Winnefeld


The 1st International Conference on Mg-based cements to be held Feb. 10-12, 2026, at Murten, Switzerland. Magnesium-based cements have the potential to become a major carbon sink in the construction industry, and our conference aims to gather researchers from academics and industry working on this emerging topic. The conference aims at exchanging state-of-the-art knowledge on future applications, from binder production to application as concrete workability, reaction kinetics, admixtures, hydrates, strength development, durability, and leaching, covering the following materials:

  • Magnesium carbonate cements
  • Magnesium silicate cements
  • Magnesium oxychloride / oxysulfate cements
  • Magnesium phosphate cements
  • Carbonation hardening materials

The authors of this Special issue are to be invited by the conference's Organizing Committee based on the assessment of their submitted abstracts, and the submitted papers are to be peer-reviewed. We really appreciate your kind contribution to publishing your excellent research works in this special issue of JACT.

Please use the template, and state that the submission is for the above special issue in the manuscript notes when you submit it.
The deadline for submission: June 1, 2026.
