Material demand and material efficiency for sustainable development in the European Union countries: A stochastic frontier analysis

Abstract: Materials are of great importance as they are fundamentally integrated into many different critical topics, including green transition, technological progress, industrial emissions, and supply chains. Therefore, the amount of materials we demand and employ in the production process or how efficiently we use them become highly crucial. In this paper, we study the emerging role of materials with a special focus on the key role of material efficiency (ME) in climate mitigation. To this end, we empirically investi… Show more

“…Electrochemical deposition of metals has been used as a technique to modify their surface, making them resistant to the working environment. In recent years, the longevity of such materials, prolonging their use, and reducing the need for new raw materials have been at the center of modern responsible research [1]. Copper is frequently chosen due to its good corrosion resistance, and the possibility of serving as a matrix for various kinds of reinforcement that can improve the properties of the material and the coating.…”
