Advance Materials

• Materials that are utilized in high-technology (or high-tech) applications are sometimes termed advanced materials.

Examples:-

• Include electronic equipment (camcorders, CD/DVD players, etc.), computers, fiber-optic systems, spacecraft, aircraft, and military rocketry, liquid crystal displays (LCDs), and fiber optics.

• These advanced materials may be typically traditional materials types (e.g., metals, ceramics, polymers) whose properties have been enhanced, and, also newly developed, high-performance materials.

• Advanced materials include semiconductors, biomaterials, and what we may term“ materials of the future.
