Introduction

Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering at UCI focuses on biomaterials, micro-structured materials, energy & sustainability factors, nanotechology and nanoengineering and environmental issues. A full program of curriculum and research at UCI focuses on novel systems that produce biofuels and commodity chemicals for synthesis of materials and pharmaceuticals; to processes and systems that enable sustainable energy storage and conversion; to the development of nano- and bio-technologies for discovery and design of novel active molecules, materials and devices with applications in sustainable energy, sensing and human health. 

Collections include coverage of nanomaterias, nanostructures, nanoelectronics, nanodevices, nanocharacterization, packaging materials, materials for advanced energy and fuel cells, biocompatible materials, soft and smart materials, electronic and photonic materials, hybrid materials, green chemistry and multifunctional materials.  The materials may include polymers, ceramics, glass, metals, alloys, synthetics, concrete, etc.  There is a wide range of information products to support the study of materials science and its many applications in product development and other defined areas.  Significant growth in the collections for crystallography and crystal structures is most prominent.
