This new book covers the most recent developments in materials technology and science, providing deep insight into advanced materials in regard to structural and physical behavior and sustainable real-world applications. It discusses the practical applications of novel materials for emerging technologies, highlighting interesting and exciting mechanical and chemical behaviors and properties of new materials.

The volume also addresses the relationship between structural identities of materials with their property profile. It explains the way we control the process parameters during the preparation of materials in detail in order to obtain the desired features in the form of arrangement of atoms, ions, or molecules, and thereby the preparation of the materials to be in-line with real-world applications.
