Surfaces, Coatings and Films

Surface coating, any mixture of film-forming materials plus pigments, solvents, and other additives, which, when applied to a surface and cured or dried, yields a thin film that is functional and often decorative.

Track 4

Bio Materials and Medical Devices

Biomaterials are materials from which medical devices are made. Based on their chemical composition, they can be polymers, metals, ceramics or composites. Metals are still the most used biomaterials mostly due to their superior mechanical properties and can be found in orthopedic, cardiovascular and dental implants.

Track 5

Mining and Metallurgy

When the ore is extracted it must then be upgraded or concentrated, and processed into metal. This stage is defined as metallurgy, while mining is concerned with extracting the ore. The metallurgy of copper, bauxite and iron ore are founded on the same principle of progressive ore refining to obtain the metal.

Track 6

Emerging Areas of Materials Science

Emerging Materials is a materials and interface discovery program, emphasizing design, synthesis, and understanding of new functional materials and interfaces for both fundamental science and early-stage technology.

Track 7

Nanotechnology is the term given to those areas of science and engineering where phenomena that take place at dimensions in the nanometre scale are utilised in the design, characterisation, production and application of materials, structures, devices and systems

Track 8

Carbon Nanostructures

Carbon nanostructures include various low-dimensional allotropes of carbon including carbon black (CB), carbon fiber, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), fullerene, and graphene. CNTs, and graphene have very unique properties. CNTs can be categorized into semiconducting or metallic according to their atomic structure.

Track 9

Graphene

Graphene is a material that is extracted from graphite and is made up of pure carbon, one of the most important elements in nature and which we find in daily objects like the lead of a pencil. Graphene stands out for being tough, flexible, light, and with a high resistance.

Track 10

Electrical, Optical, and Magnetic Materials

Electric properties: electric polarization, electric dipole moment, polarizability, relative permittivity. Magnetic properties: magnetic polarization, magnetic susceptibility, paramagnetism, magnetic resonance parameters. Optical properties: polarization, interference, diffraction, optical activity, refractive index.

Track 11

Physics and Chemistry of Materials

The physical chemistry of materials, as an emerging discipline of modern material sciences, concerns not only the production of new materials but also the physical and chemical characteristics and performances of materials for the maximum effect in their circumstance.

Track 12

Corrosion Engineering and Corrosion Protection

Corrosion engineering involves designing of corrosion prevention schemes and implementation of specific codes and practices. Corrosion prevention measures, including Cathodic protection, designing to prevent corrosion and coating of structures fall within the regime of corrosion engineering.

Track 13

Functional Materials

Functional materials are generally characterised as those materials which possess particular native properties and functions of their own. For example, ferroelectricity, piezoelectricity, magnetism or energy storage functions.

Track 14

Polymers Science Nano Engineering

Polymers are substances composed of macromolecules, very large molecules with molecular weights ranging from a few thousand to as high as millions of grams/mole.

Track 15

Computational Modeling of Metals Materials

The primary goal for computational metallurgy and design is to understand the fundamental thermodynamic forces and kinetic mechanisms leading to the observed microstructures, identify the optimum microstructures possessing the most desirable properties, and thus predict desired processing conditions to optimize 

Track 16

Biosensor and Bio-electronic Materials

Biosensors are being used pervasively in the medical field to diagnose infectious diseases. A promising biosensor technology for urinary tract infection (UTI) diagnosis along with pathogen identification and anti-microbial susceptibility is under study.

Track 17

Optoelectronic Materials

Optoelectronics is based on the quantum mechanical effects of light on electronic materials, especially semiconductors. Optoelectronics concerns the study and application of electronic devices that source, detect and control light. Optoelectronic devices consist of different semiconductor alloys lying on substrates.

Track 18

Nano-electronics and Nano-electronic Devices

Nanoelectronics uses nanotechnology in electronic components. There are various applications such as computing and electronic devices. Devices such as Flash memory chips, antimicrobial and antibacterial coatings for mouse, keyboard. Also, mobile phone castings are good examples of nanoelectronics.

Track 19

NanoBiotechnology

Nanobiotechnology is a discipline in which tools from nanotechnology are developed and applied to study biological phenomena. For example, nanoparticles can serve as probes, sensors or vehicles for biomolecule delivery in cellular systems.

Track 20

Crystallography

crystallography, branch of science that deals with discerning the arrangement and bonding of atoms in crystalline solids and with the geometric structure of crystal lattices. Classically, the optical properties of crystals were of value in mineralogy and chemistry for the identification of substances.

Track 21

Semiconductors

 

semiconductor, any of a class of crystalline solids intermediate in electrical conductivity between a conductor and an insulator. Semiconductors are employed in the manufacture of various kinds of electronic devices, including diodes, transistors, and integrated circuits.

Track 22

Energy Materials

Materials Energy can be defined as the energy associated with the arrangement of particles in a material. It is basically the potential energy stored in the material due to its configuration and atomic bonding.

Track 23

Optics

Optics is the branch of physics which is concerned with light and it's behavioural pattern and properties. Optics is a branch of physics that deals with the determination of behaviour and the properties of light, along with its interactions with the matter and also with the instruments which are used to detect it.

Track 24

Metamaterials

Metamaterials can be defined as artificially structured materials used to control and mold the flow of electromagnetic waves or possibly any other type of physical waves.

Track 25

Smart Materials

Smart materials and structures can be defined as the materials and structures that sense and react to environmental conditions or stimuli, such as those from mechanical, thermal, chemical, electrical, magnetic or other sources.

Track 26

Batteries and solid electrolyte materials

A solid-state battery is an electrical battery that uses a solid electrolyte for ionic conductions between the electrodes, instead of the liquid or gel polymer electrolytes found in conventional batteries.

Track 27

Environmental and Green Materials

Green materials are renewable, naturally occurring, and do not directly contribute to the pollution of the earth. Sustainable materials take into consideration much more than the constitution of the material or its environmental impact.

Track 28

3D Printing and Addictive Manufacturing

The term additive manufacturing refers to the process of adding material to an object. 3D printing is thus a type of additive manufacturing. It's called additive manufacturing when an object is made by adding material rather than subtracting it.
