NRL researchers conduct basic and applied research to develop materials of tangible value to the Navy. The research program includes the intrinsic behavior of metals, alloys, ceramics, glasses, and composites and their performance and reliability in naval structures and devices. Environmental effects on materials properties and performance are also studied.
