Materials are the material foundation for human production and life, and they are also an important indicator for measuring the technological development level of a country. The research objects of materials science cover various types of materials such as metals, ceramics, polymers, and composite materials. The core of its study lies in revealing the intrinsic laws among "composition - structure - process - performance - application": 

Components: The chemical composition of the material directly affects its basic properties (such as the strength of metals, the high-temperature resistance of ceramics).

Structure: Includes atomic arrangement (such as crystal structure), microstructure (such as grain size) and macroscopic form, determining the mechanical, physical and chemical properties of the material.

Process: The preparation, processing and modification techniques of the material (such as smelting, sintering, injection molding, coating, etc.), is the key link to achieve the material's performance.

Performance: The characteristics exhibited by the material in the usage environment (such as strength, toughness, conductivity, corrosion resistance, etc.), is the core basis for material application. 

The development of materials science has directly driven breakthroughs in high-tech fields such as aerospace, new energy, information technology, and biomedicine. For instance, materials for spacecraft's high-temperature resistance, semiconductor materials for chips, and battery materials for new energy vehicles all rely on the research achievements of materials science.
