About
Materials have become part and parcel of our everyday lives. They exist in various forms; semiconductors in computer chips; light materials in aerospace applications; bio-materials in artificial organs or bone replacements; catalyst substrates in energy industries; and optical materials in communications systems, among others. Suffice to say, it is no exaggeration that the revolution of today’s technologies largely depend on the development of new and innovative materials.
Materials science emphasises the relationship between synthesis and processing of materials, the structure (of materials) at atomic scales and their macroscopic properties. Material properties can be tailored by manipulating its composition and structure through synthesis and processing.
