International Conference on Material Science & Engineering

Materials make modern life conceivable from those metal ball-point pen you’re using, the polymers in the chair you’re sitting on, and the concrete that made the framework you live or work into the materials that make up highways and streets and the car you drive. All these are the products of materials science and technology (MST). Materials science is the study of solid matter, inorganic and organic. The manifold nature of Materials Science is attracting many students and researchers to explore in this field. The field has since broadened to include every class of materials, including polymers, ceramics, semiconductors, magnetic materials, biological materials, medical implant materials and nanomaterials.

Highlighting content from 1962 to till date, the database backing materials science research, including topics such as metals, ceramics, polymers, composites, and biomaterials and dealing with areas such as molding and casting, corrosion, treatment, recycling, testing, finishing, and welding. To encourage engineering research, this caters easy access to millions of bibliographic records for the widest and deepest coverage of new technologies and engineering research, including mechanical, civil, environmental, earthquake, and transportation. Sources go beyond the bounds of scholarly journals to include grey literature including patents, government reports, conference proceedings, and more to provide the researcher with the maximum awareness and discovery of developments in the field.

The global market is anticipated to achieve $6,000 million by 2020 and stamp a CAGR of 10.2% between 2015 and 2020 in terms of value. The development in market is evaluated to be driven by the expanding demand for aerogel materials from oil & gas and construction applications. In the United States, the growth of materials science was catalyzed to some extent by the Advanced Research Projects Agency, which supported a series of university-hosted laboratories in the early 1960s "to grow the national program of basic research and training in the materials sciences." The North American region remains the biggest market, trailed by Asia-Pacific. The Europe market is assessed to be developed at a consistent rate because of economic recovery in the region alongside the increasing concern for the building insulation and energy savings. The U.S. Bureau of Labour Statistics (BLS) produces yearly wage estimates for more than 800 individual occupations. Recently discharged figures for 2012 put BLS Code 19-2032 (an occupational group encompassing materials scientists) in 82nd place in yearly wages. The group, which incorporates 7,970 employees across the nation, posted an average annual salary of $89,740.

Global utilization of nanocomposites is expected to develop in unit terms from nearly 225,060 metric tons in 2014 to about 584,984 metric tons in 2019, a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.1% for the period of 2014 to 2019. The global market for nanofiber products achieved $203.2 million and $276.8 million in 2013 and 2014, respectively. This market is anticipated to develop from $383.7 million in 2015 to nearly $2.0 billion in 2020, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 38.6% between 2015 and 2020. The global nanotechnology market in environmental applications reached $23.4 billion in 2014. This market is relied upon to reach about $25.7 billion by 2015 and $41.8 billion by 2020, enrolling a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.2% from 2015 to 2020.

The worldwide smart glass market is relied upon to develop from USD 2.34 Billion in 2015 to USD 8.13 Billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 19.2% in the vicinity of 2016 and 2022. The emerging automobile and architectural buildings end-use industry make a tremendous interest for the smart glass market across the world. The main factors driving the development of the market are the requirement for energy-efficient solutions and government regulations for green buildings. Besides, the growing automotive sector is expected to drive the market soon
