Future Aspects of Materials science


Even in 2020, materials research can be positioned as a key technology for cutting-edge industries that take the initiative in building a sustainable society. Namely, by 2020, it is expected that the whole world will enter into an age of grand economic competition. It is, therefore, essential for Japan to reinforce its internationally competitive industries in terms of both quality and quantity by that time.
Economic globalization is promoting the rapid industrialization and economic growth of China, India and other populous countries, prompting those countries to develop and maintain their social and economic infrastructures and stimulating demand for the material industries that supply steel, cement, and petrochemical products, etc. These materials industuries are a key technology for the transportation equipment industries, such as the automotive industry. It is expected to develop the new structural materials necessary for the development of next-generation transportation equipment that are lighter, stronger, tougher and more durable while consuming less energy. It is important for those high-tech materials industries to conduct basic and fundamental research in the field of materials and develop new materials that bring about industrial innovation.
Nanotechnology is a general term for the science and technology involved in creating, measuring, assessing and predicting substances/materials (nano-materials) and functional elements (nano-devices) in the order of nanometres (billionths of a meter). It is proven that nano devices can change the properties as well as characteristics of materials, since they have huge applications in 21st century.

Novel aspects of Nanotubes

A nanotube is a tubular particle made out of an extensive number of carbon atoms. Nanotubes having a wide range of application in various fields such as Photovoltaic cells , targeted drug delivery, automobile industries, aerospace so on.  Now as per the recent studies, Researchers state that the weak van der Waals forces between the inner surface of the nanotube and the water molecules are strong enough to snap the oxygen and hydrogen atoms into place. In the case of a two-dimensional ice, the molecules freeze regardless of the temperature and research provides valuable insight on ways to leverage atomic interactions between nanotubes and water molecules to fabricate nanochannels and energy-storing nanocapacitors. Scientists built molecular models of carbon and boron nitride nanotubes with adjustable widths. They found boron nitride is best at obliging the state of water when the nanotubes are 10.5 angstroms wide. The scientists definitely realized that hydrogen particle...

Nano indentation for the determination of visco-elastic properties of polymer

For a few periods, circular space has been utilized with the end goal of materials qualities, for example, versatile modulus, hardness and flexible plastic properties. One of the primary drivers for the prevalence of these estimations was that with a spherical indenter and adequately low loads basically flexible distortions could be gotten. The contact issue can be explained generally just by settling understood Hertz conditions and the flexible constants of the material are easily figured. Such thought was extremely productive likewise for assurance of visco-elastic properties of polymers , where low distortions would prompt concealment of the irreversible stream of the material and the visco-versatile properties of the polymer could in this manner be resolved. This would be an incredibly preferred standpoint over as often as possible performed space with Berkovich indenter , where promptly the points of confinement of plastic stream are come to and the distortion is unavoidabl...
