Acknowledgments The research team would like to thank all materials experts, investment market specialists and all other stakeholders for their valuable input to the data collection, data analysis and comments during the report preparation process. We would like to express special thanks to our main contact persons from European Commission: Dr. Helge Wessel and Dr. Renzo Tomellini. We thank them for their smooth co-operation. 8
Chapter 1. Executive summary / Conclusions A range of new materials with advanced properties are created through the process of technological development and knowledge intensive production. These are known as Value Added Materials (VAMs). New materials appear all the time in the natural course of industrial development; however advanced materials are tailored to fulfil specific functions and/or have superior structural properties. We distinguish four conditions that define Value Added Materials: a knowledge-intensive and complex production process, new, superior, tailor-made properties for structural or functional applications, potential to contribute to competitive advantage on the market, potential to address Europe’s Grand Challenges. 1 Value Added Materials are a group of advanced materials that have strategic importance for economic growth, industrial competitiveness or for addressing the Grand Challenges of our times. 1 The Grand Challenges, a term first used in the Lund Declaration, have been defined differently in various settings and have evolved over time. In the recent formulation of Grand Challenges used for planning Horizon 2020 within the European Commission, DG Research lists the following: health, demographic change and wellbeing; food security and bio-based economy; secure, clean and efficient energy; smart, green and integrated transport; supply of raw materials; resource efficiency and climate protection; inclusive, innovative and secure societies. Value Added Materials are present across all groups of commonly engineering materials. Within the scope of material science, they may be classified broadly into the following three main (traditional) and two (relatively new) additional classes: 2 1. metals and alloys (ferrous and non-ferrous), 2. ceramics, 3. polymers, 4. semiconductors, 3 5. composites. Aim of the study This study delineates a precise overview of VAMS through multiple perspectives of their various market sectors. This major study seeks to achieve the following objectives: 1. definition and classification of VAMs; 2. analysis: VAMs by sector; 3. detailed current market analysis by sector and technology application; 4. prediction of VAMs’ market development by sector; 5. current and potential future technological market drivers; 2 Vinay Swastik, ‘Classification of Materials’, ,Metallurgist Encyclopedia. 3 Items 4 and 5 of this list follow the classification of materials by Ash Tan. : http://EzineArticles.com/2894736 9
