The top 10 material innovations of 2024
The realities of climate change have driven another big year in material innovation in 2024. Here are 10 of the best solutions that have put a promising spin on cement, plastic, fur, linoleum, or even introduced something new.
For many designers and engineers experimenting with materials, the drive has been to replace high-emissions building materials as quickly and practicably as possible, with concrete regularly spotlighted for contributing as much as eight per cent of carbon emissions globally.
Others are targeting plastic, whether by replacing it with plant-based alternatives or taking different approaches to biodegradability and recycling.

In general, if you enjoy reading this kind of scientific news articles, I would also be keen to connect with fellow researchers based on common research interests in materials science, including the possibility to discuss about any potential interest in the Materials Square cloud-based online platform ( www.matsq.com ), designed for streamlining the execution of materials and molecular modelling simulations!
