An important area of study that is crucial to many businesses is Chemical and Materials research. The main objectives of materials research are to understand the properties of different materials such as Metals, Ceramics, Polymers and Composites and to find out how they can be used to develop new and better products. Many processes, such as making new medicines and generating energy, depend on synthesising novel chemicals and studying how these compounds interact with other materials. Improvements in these areas have had a major impact on other sectors such as electronics, healthcare and transport. If we continue to invest in chemistry and materials research, we can expect further developments in these areas as well as breakthrough answers to many of the problems we face today.
