Space Materials Science in China: II. Ground-based Researches and Academic Activities

Activities of space materials science research in China have been continuously supported by two main national programs. One is the China Space Station (CSS) program since 1992, and the other is the Strategic Priority Program (SPP) on Space Science since 2011. In CSS plan in 2019, eleven space materials science experimental projects were officially approved for execution during the construction of the space station. In the SPP Phase II launched in 2018, seven pre-research projects are deployed as the first batch in 2018, and one concept study project in 2019. These pre-research projects will be cultivated as candidates for future selection as space experiment projects on the recovery of scientific experimental satellites in the future. A new apparatus of electrostatic levitation system for ground-based research of space materials science and rapid solidification research has been developed under the support of the National Natural Science Foundation of China. In order to promote domestic academic activities and to enhance the advancement of space materials science in China, the Space Materials Science and Technology Division belong to the Chinese Materials Research Society was established in 2019. We also organized scientists to write five review papers on space materials science as a special topic published in the journal <i>Scientia Sinica</i> to provide valuable scientific and technical references for Chinese researchers.

17th IUMRS International Conference in Asia (IUMRS-ICA 2016)

PrefaceThis is the proceedings of the selected papers presented at IUMRS International Conference in Asia (IUMRS-ICA) held in Qingdao, China, Oct. 20-24, 2016. IUMRS-ICA is one of the most important series conferences of International Union of Materials Research Societies (IUMRS). ICA is held once a year and organized by IUMRS Asia members in turn. Authorized by IUMRS, IUMRS-ICA 2016 was organized by Chinese Materials Research Society (C-MRS).IUMRS-ICA2016 included 27 symposia covering the fields of: Energy and environment materials, Advanced structural materials, Functional materials, Biological materials, Materials modeling, simulation and characterization. About 2700 participants attended the conference, and the organizers received more than 80 technical papers for this proceedings. By recommendation of symposium organizers and after peer reviewing 54 papers are published in the present volume, which are selected from Symposium A: Solar Energy Materials and Solar Cells, Symposium C: Photocatalytic Materials for Energy Production, Symposium D: Energy Conversion and Storage Materials, Symposium E: Nuclear Materials, Symposium L: Nanomaterials and Energy Devices, Symposium M: Advanced Carbon Materials, Symposium P: The Green and Low-carbon Emission Building Materials, and Symposium AA: Biomaterials.The editors would like to give the thanks to the symposium chairs and all the paper reviewers of this volume, especially to Prof. Yafang Han, Prof. Xinqing Zhao and Dr. Fenfen Liang for their English polishing of the manuscripts. The thanks should be also given to Mrs. Yiming Jia and Mr. Yunfei Liang for their hard work of compilation and typesetting for each paper in this volume.Chief Editor

A brief overview of the International Forum on Graphene 2014

The International Forum on Graphene 2014 was held in the Graduate School at Shenzhen, Tsinghua University, Shenzhen, China from May 18 to 21, 2014. It was organised by the China Association for Science and Technology (CAST) with the support of the National Natural Science Foundation of China, the Chinese Materials Research Society, Shenzhen Science and Technology Association and the Science & Technology Innovation Committee of Shenzhen. Graduate School at Shenzhen, Tsinghua University and the Institute of Metal Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences. In this forum, twenty outstanding scientists (10 from abroad and 10 from China) presented their recent research and opinions on future developments on graphene and related carbon materials. More than two hundred people attended. Twenty presentations, including one plenary presentation by Professor Andre Geim, the Nobel Prize winner, ten keynote talks and nine invited presentations, were given. The forum included six topics: fundamentals of graphene and other two-dimensional materials, controlled growth and mass production, unique physical and chemical properties, advanced applications of graphene and carbon nanotubes, opportunities and challenges of graphene industrialization, and future markets and developments. Two dialogue sessions were held to promote academic and industrial discussion about graphene materials, and this advocated the future cooperation of China with other counties.

Materials Science: Parepistemes Rampant

This article is based on a plenary address which Robert W. Cahn, Cambridge University, delivered at the International Union of Materials Research Societies International Conference on Advanced Materials (IUMRS-ICAM’99) hosted by the Chinese Materials Research Society (C-MRS) in Beijing, on June 14, 1999. A Version of this article is also being published in Materials Today, the quarterly magazine published by Elsevier for the European-MRS. A report of the IUMRS-ICAM’99 meeting will be published in a future issue of MRS Bulletin.
