Prof. Qijun Yu (余其俊), Professor at South China University of Technology, visited IAPME on July 31, 2025 and gave an insightful presentation titled “Introduction of Broadband and modifiable electromagnetic wave absorbing cement-based materials”. The seminar was hosted by Prof. Guoxing Sun who extended the invitation to Prof. Yu.
Prof. Qijun Yu, is currently a PhD supervisor, Distinguished Professor of the Pearl River Scholars Program in Guangdong Province, Outstanding Teacher of Guangdong, and Recipient of the State Council‘s Special Allowance, has long been engaged in fundamental and applied research on solid waste comprehensive utilization, composite cement chemistry, low-energy consumption preparation and efficient application of cement, and the environmental impact of the cement industry for a long time.
In his speech, focused on the enhancement technology of wave-absorbing performance in cement-based materials, particularly elaborating on the mechanisms of cement-based structure design and optimization of wave-absorbing components in improving wave-absorbing performance. These insights provided new approaches for the design and performance enhancement of cement-based wave-absorbing materials.
The seminar provided attendees with a comprehensive understanding of the latest advancements in electromagnetic wave-absorbing cement-based materials. Prof. Yu has led over 40 research projects, including the National “973 Program,” “863 Program,” National Science and Technology Support Program, National Key R&D Program, National Natural Science Foundation of China, and various provincial and ministerial-level projects.
