Energy Materials
An Introduction
The energy industry is a true test of material properties. The breadth of geographical locations, environments, structural demands, temperatures and contact with corrosive elements are unparalleled. As new ways of producing energy come to the fore and efficiencies are being found in existing technologies, new materials are being integrated and new applications are being found for the incumbents.
​
Key material considerations for the energy industries are: strength - structural strength for hydroelectric dams, electricity pylons, wind turbines et al, tensile strength for overhead powerlines and compessive strength for pressure vessels; electrical conductivity for power lines; corrosion resistance for attacks from the elements, marine environments and acids; and Temperature range, from sub zero cryogenics in nuclear cooling, to 1000s of degrees celsius.
