Tech 101: Resilient Materials An NDIA's ETI Monthly Tech Webinar Series

Description

Resilient materials are engineered to withstand and recover from extreme environmental, mechanical, and chemical stress—making them vital for defense applications where performance under pressure is critical. From blast-resistant composites to high-temperature alloys and self-healing polymers, these materials enhance the durability, survivability, and readiness of DoD systems and personnel.

This introductory webinar will explore the fundamentals of resilient materials, key categories and use cases, and their growing role in supporting mission assurance, reducing maintenance, and enabling operational effectiveness across contested and austere environments. Attendees will gain a foundational understanding of how these materials are shaping the future of defense capabilities.
