Ceramic and Glass Research Team is under Ceramics and Construction Materials Research Group, doing research and development on ceramic, glass and geopolymer materials, which focusing on eco-friendly materials to reduce energy consumption in the manufacturing process. The research topics include low temperature ceramic body and lead-free glaze, utilization of industrial solid wastes such as, bottom ash, glass cullet and tile waste to various innovative materials i.e., decorative tiles, paving blocks, and light-weight composite bricks.
In addition, the team also provides services to industries by developing raw material, ceramic body, and glaze databases, establishing laboratory for quality control in process, being a consultant and solving problems of product by analyzing, testing as well as using the management technology such as clean technology to improve productivity and reduce cost in process.
