Carbon in Industry Award
The Carbon in Industry Award seeks to recognise the contribution made by leading industrial scientists and engineers to carbon science and technology such as any significant contribution to developmental work.
Ubbelohde Lectures
Initiated at the 2006 Carbon Conference in Aberdeen, the Ubbelohde Memorial Lectures were established in memory of Professor AR Ubbelohde from Imperial College London, in recognition of his enormous impact on the field of carbon science. Prof Ubbelohde had a wide interest over a range of topics in physics and chemistry but is chiefly remembered for his outstanding work on carbon, especially graphite and its intercalation compounds. He worked on this over many years, initially at Queen's University, Belfast, and then at Imperial College, London. He then pioneered the production of Highly Oriented Pyrolytic Graphite (HOPG) in the Carbon Research laboratory at Imperial College, where the properties of this material were investigated extensively and samples sent to many other laboratories. He was an inspirational teacher and supervisor, who left a legacy of many generations of his research students and associates.Established 2006
