Materials in Extremes

Vision

Accelerate the move to a resilient, abundant, and affordable energy future by understanding, characterizing, and advancing material performance in extreme environments.

Mission

Our work develops optimal material solutions at the convergence of understanding properties, performance, microstructure, and modeling.

 R&D Scope

The Materials in Extremes section contributes to a wide range of materials research and development in support of the DOE mission and other public and private entities based on group core competencies in corrosion, mechanical properties, nuclear materials, radiation effects, and applied materials science characterization. The section has a unique and comprehensive suite of capabilities for the development and characterization of materials under extreme environments. A goal is to use high-throughput techniques and data analytics to accelerate the understanding, development, and qualification of material solutions.
