Abstract

The International Conference on Frontier Materials (ICFM) is initiated and sponsored by International Union of Materials Research Societies (IUMRS) and Advanced Materials Alliance of CAST Members Societies (AMAC), and is co-organized by AMAC and Shanghai University. ICFM is intended to provide an open and exciting forum for researchers and students from materials science and interdisciplinary fields worldwide to present their new and exciting scientific discoveries and innovations in advanced materials. The conference is also designed to offer an international platform for researchers from industrial labs, academic institutes and business to discuss technology development and transfer as well as potential impact of frontier materials on commercial products and industrial applications.The first conference (ICMF2022) was held in May, 2022, by the hybridized approach of accepting both on-site participation and on-line presentation. The second one (ICFM2023) was held in Qingdao International Convention and Exhibition Center (Laoshan), Qingdao, China, Oct. 13-17.The ICMF2023 had 31 symposia which were grouped into seven topical clusters of Energy and Environmental Materials, Advanced Information Materials, Advanced Bio and Bio-Inspired Materials, Advanced Structural Materials, Advanced Functional Materials, Low-Dimensional Materials, and Design, Preparation and Evaluation for Materials. There were nearly 2000 participants attending ICFM2023, and more than 800 scientists and graduate students presented lectures at the parallel sessions of 31 symposia.Eight plenary lectures were presented by world-renowned materials scientists from Asia, Europe, North America and South America. Four specific forums as well as Exhibition on Analysis and Testing Equipment for Materials were held simultaneously. During the conference, the awards of IUMRS-FMA (Frontier Materials Awards) to scientists and students who have made outstanding contribution in the field of Frontier Materials was issued.The Conference papers have been published on four materials related journals and conference proceedings. This conference volume comprises of selected papers mainly in the field of advanced high-temperature structure materials and materials characterization as well as eco-materials.I would like to express my appreciation to the paper referees of Profs. Yongwang Kang, Jiangbo Sha, Jinxia Song, Wenlong Xiao, Xinqing Zhao and Chungen Zhou. Thanks also go to Mrs. Xiaomei Ma for the work of papers’ duplicate checking. And the special appreciation should be given to Mrs. Flora Han and Mr. Jianyun Lin for their miscellaneous work to correct the information about the papers as well as communicate with the authors.Prof. Yafang HanChair of academic Committee of ICFM2023Guest Editor of IOP ICFM2023 ProceedingsList of Organizing Committee is available in this pdf.
