Materials Chemistry
"Materials
Chemistry" can be describe as the
branch of chemistry aimed at the preparation, characterization, and
understanding of substances/systems that have some specific useful function).
It requires 4 primary components: preparation /synthesis, structure,
characterization and applications. It combines the elements from all four
classical areas of chemistry but puts an intellectual focal point on the
fundamental scientific issues that are unique to "materials".
Materials Chemistry
largely related to the study of chemistry of condensed phases (solids, liquids, polymers) and accommodate
between different phases. Because many of these materials have implied
technological applications, materials chemistry has a strong link between basic
science and many existing and freshly emerging technologies. While
chemistry-focused, the Materials Chemistry Program also provide as a bridge
between chemistry and the engineering and life sciences.
