Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As a guest editor of Materials, I am delighted to introduce the upcoming Special Issue of Materials, entitled "Cementitious Materials for Construction: Preparation, Characterization and Applications", as follows:
Cementitious materials are essential components in the construction industry. This category includes cement, concrete, and other materials that play crucial roles in building structures and infrastructure. This Special Issue will focus on the preparation, characterization, and application of cementitious materials. It aims to explore new methods and technologies to improve the performance and durability of cementitious materials and to expand their applications in construction. This Special Issue will feature the latest research results from researchers around the world, covering various aspects, including the preparation of new types of cement, the characterization of their properties, and their application in construction. These research results provide new ideas and methods for the development of cementitious materials, contributing to the sustainable development of the construction industry.
