30th International Conference on Materials and Technology

30th International Conference on Materials and Technology took place Oct 15–17, 2025 in Portorož, Slovenia. It was a Congress event for corrosion and materials science professionals in the Europe region. The Conference brings together professionals from research, academia, and industry to address critical challenges in materials development, particularly focusing on subjects such as materials deterioration and sustainability. Special themes include materials deterioration in extreme environments—especially in metallic materials, high- and medium-entropy alloys, composites, and reinforced steels—which affect long-term performance and safety. It emphasizes the need for sustainable solutions, such as circular materials, biodegradable biomaterials, and materials for green energy, in response to growing environmental concerns. The meeting underscores the development of resilient, efficient, and sustainable materials through interdisciplinary collaboration and innovation.
