Dr. Tomi Pekka Bernhard Nissinen, visited IAPME on December 6, 2024. During his visit, he delivered an insightful presentation titled “Impactful Innovation -Strategic views to promote commercialization & Brief Introduction to Cementitious ternary system.” The seminar was hosted by Prof. Guoxing Sun who extended the invitation to Dr. Tomi Pekka Bernhard Nissinen.
Dr. Tomi Nissinen is a Lead Research Scientist at Kiilto Oy, a Finnish chemical and construction material manufacturer. Dr. Nissinen obtained his PhD degree of Chemistry from University of Bristol in 2014. Before his industrial experience his main research interest were in colloidal chemistry, non-classical crystallisation and biomineralization, where he has published RSC papers on gypsum crystallisation.
In his speech, he first introduced innovation models, their applications in different industries, and how companies plan their research strategies based on these models. Different tools for evaluating ideas and research topics were also presented.
The second part focused on the chemistry of aluminous cement and its application in construction materials, particularly in self-leveling substrate products.
The seminar provided attendees with a comprehensive understanding of the latest advancements in Cementitious Ternary System. Their findings contribute to the ongoing efforts to develop more eco-friendly and high-performance construction materials.
