Exploring Critical Materials using the Ansys Granta EduPack Software

The groups of materials of particularly high economic importance and supply risk are referred to as Critical Raw Materials (CRMs). Different countries have different lists of CRMs depending on access to domestic supply, geopolitics and economic strength nationally.​ There are different methods for criticality assessment, varied in goals and scopes, using different indicators. This lecture unit focuses on the concept of critical raw materials (CRMs). It provides a brief historical overview, explaining how this concept has appeared; describes importance of CRMs and provides a glimpse on criticality assessments. Ansys Granta EduPack™, a teaching software for materials education, helps visualize data on elements and CRMs, helping with presenting a bigger picture. Example of Cobalt shows high importance of CRMs and complex challenges in many instances.
