Description

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Industrial Technology (OIT) requested that the National Research Council, through the National Materials Advisory Board, conduct a study to evaluate its crosscutting materials program (i.e., programs on materials applicable to more than one industry). The committee on Materials Technology for Process Industries was established to review OIT s materials programs and management strategies, identify research and application needs, and identify barriers to the commercialization of new technologies.
