Below is a list of recent and forthcoming events at Lucideon, as well as conferences and other events that we have attended or will be attending.

2022	Event
6 September 2022	Webinar: Hydrogen - Diffusion, Permeability, Hydride Formation and Metallic Embrittlement - A Metallurgical Perspective on Hydrogen Issues. Part I - Containment, Diffusion & Permeability The growing use of hydrogen in the energy industry sets in motion a myriad of metallurgical issues and problems. The metallurgical community has long been dealing with problems associated with hydrogen interaction with metals; from containment in its liquid state at cryogenic temperatures to its burning as a fuel at high temperatures and everything in between. This two-part webinar series deals with some of the more complex metallurgical issues related to hydrogen. Part I (this webinar) addresses issues associated with cryogenic containment, diffusion, and permeability. A discussion of cryogenic materials selection and processing is presented addressing proper containment of hydrogen at extremely low temperatures. The nature of hydrogen gas is covered with a discussion revolving around the very small and very reactive nature of the hydrogen atom. It can diffuse through any material and permeate its microstructure. You can’t stop it, but maybe you can slow it down and control it. To view the webinar recording, please click here
21 July 2022	NDA Group Supply Chain Event (The International Centre, Telford, Shropshire, UK) Lucideon exhibited at this event, which attracted 1700 delegates, providing opportunities to network with more than 300 exhibiting companies.

2021	Event
17 November 2021	MaterialsMatrix Online Panel: Powering Up: How Women in Energy are Driving Change The energy sector is experiencing a dramatic change: a shift from fossil-based systems of energy production and consumption - including oil, natural gas and coal - to alternative energy sources, like wind, hydrogen and lithium-ion batteries. In addition, the energy sector is experiencing an increase of women in the workforce; however, the percentage is still less than half. The speakers on the panel were women who are currently involved in the rapid energy transition. They explored the contribution of their energy source to the future, discussing the barriers to women in STEM and how can we get more women in the sector, as well as learning about the panellists' experiences as women in energy. A recording of this panel event is available via the link below (you will need to register on the site to view the recording, but registration is free) See the recording
20 May 2021	Webinar: Meet the MaterialsMatrix! Want to know more about the MaterialsMatrix, the free community for everyone interested in materials?
