Advanced Materials
Abstrak
Materials with new or improved functionalities have always had great importance for humanity, evidenced by the fact that certain periods of time have been named after the available materials which shaped life (e.g. the Stone Age, Bronze Age, and Iron Age). Nowadays, rapid technological advances are resulting in material innovations at an even faster pace, i.e. the so-called advanced materials – a term that has been in use in the field of materials science for more than thirty years1 – which bring about new functionalities and thus new possibilities, but also uncertainties in terms of their effects on humans and the environment. Because of their novel and advanced properties, it has often been pointed out that advanced materials can provide attractive solutions to global challenges, such as the need for continuous renewable energy, clean water, and transition to a low-carbon economy.
