From Western Australia to the United Kingdom: Expanding Reformix’s Advanced Materials Characterisation Capability Advanced materials engineering depends on more than just formulation - it depends on understanding materials at the crystallographic, microstructural and sometimes even atomic level. Last month, Reformix Materials Group director Ramon Skåne travelled to the United Kingdom to attend the Durham University Powder Diffraction & Rietveld Refinement School 2026, joini

Understanding Calcined Clays Calcined clays are not merely a replacement for traditional materials. They represent a significant advancement in sustainable construction. The potential of these materials lies in their ability to lower carbon emissions associated with cement production. By utilizing calcined clays, we can achieve substantial reductions in CO2 emissions, thus contributing to a more sustainable future. Not All Clays Are Equal A common misconception in the industr

Industrial by-products are not static materials. They evolve. In recent work turned peer-reviewed study published in Materials Today Communications, we investigated how Western Australian fly ash sourced from the same region changed composition over a 15-year period - and how those changes altered binder composite performance. Feedstock characterisation is not a one-off exercise. It must be continuous...read more
