About
Sylvie Rossignol is a leading figure in the development of sustainable construction materials, with a primary focus on geopolymers and additive manufacturing. Her research bridges materials chemistry and digital fabrication, aiming to reduce the environmental footprint of the building industry. Rossignol’s most notable contribution is a pioneering strategy for 3D-printing geopolymer composite structures at a half-meter scale, achieved without the use of organic additives. This work, published in 2021 and cited 18 times, required the development of an original printing device based on cartridges, adapted to a 6-axis robot. By precisely controlling the yield stress, working time, and apparent Young’s modulus of the geopolymer paste, she demonstrated that large-scale, binder-free, printable inorganic structures are viable. This breakthrough opens the door to low-carbon, on-demand construction components. Rossignol’s research is instrumental in advancing the field of eco-friendly digital construction, offering a tangible path toward reducing the cement industry’s carbon emissions while maintaining structural integrity and design freedom.
