Control of Materials Function and Morphology Area (Utsunomiya Laboratory)

Our research develops innovative processes to create next-generation materials such as lightweight eco-materials, highly processable materials, ultrafine grained materials, and highly recyclable materials. Simultaneously, we conduct research to devise methods that elucidate and predict the guiding principles to express useful structures and properties of materials.
