The Materials Science and Engineering Laboratory provides technical leadership and participates in developing the measurement and standards infrastructure related to materials critical to U.S. industry, academia, government, and the public. Materials science and engineering programs at NIST cover a full range of materials issues from design to processing to performance. A unifying aim is to acquire the knowledge and tools needed for intelligent manufacturing methods with real-time automated process controls.
Separate research initiatives address ceramics, metals, polymers, composites, and superconductors. This research supports efforts of U.S. industry to develop reliable, low-cost manufacturing methods for producing tailor-made materials and products with superior properties.
Through laboratory-organized consortia and one-to-one collaborations, NIST’s materials scientist and engineers work closely with industrial researchers. Examples include work on improved processing of rapidly solidified metal powders, polymer composites, ceramic machining, aerospace alloys, and non-destructive evaluation sensors for aluminum and steel manufacturing. The laboratory is also strengthening its relationships with manufacturers of high-technology products, the major users of advanced materials
