Hi, we have a new paper from CCC.

Dr. Wengui Li from the University of New South Wales (UNSW Sydney) stayed with us for one month with support from JSPS　International Academic Collaborations, during which we discussed research proposals and future collaborative studies. This marks our first achievement, and I hope this will lead to a fruitful and sustained collaboration.
Over the past decade, research into utilizing the electrical properties of geopolymers and cement-based materials has gained considerable momentum, not only for corrosion monitoring but also for power generation, energy storage, and sensing applications.
Here is an example of an application as a sensor:
