Materials are chosen for their properties. Physical and chemical properties, polymers, nanotechnology and the sustainability of material choices.
The measurable qualities that define a material's behaviour.
How materials react — and why it matters for their use.
From iron to titanium — structure determines application.
Long chains of molecules — endlessly versatile, hard to dispose of.
Combine two materials — get the best of both.
When size reaches the nanoscale, properties change dramatically.
Match the right material to the right job.
The hidden cost of making — and throwing away — materials.
Design, test, and evaluate a material-based solution.
How material science is solving real-world problems.
