No other materials have contributed more to the development of mankind over the millennia than metals. Throughout centuries, studies of metals belonged to one of the oldest branches of Materials Science–Metallurgy. This changed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when applications of metal-based materials spread into other areas of science and technology including electronics, energy, aeronautics and space travel, to name a few. Presently, there are 87 known metals, 61 of which are available through Sigma-Aldrich in various forms including metals, metal oxides, salts, nanomaterials, alloys, and organometallic precursors for solution and vapor film deposition.
