The presented book will be helpful to specialists in dental materials and technologies and will contribute to further development and progress in this field.

The ICKEM 2022 was held virtually on March 18-20, 2022. The rapid development of modern technology needs the support of many new materials. Since the third wave of science and technology swept the world, new materials, together with information energy, have been called the three-generation pillars of modern science and technology. Material science has developed into an interdisciplinary and comprehensive discipline. The main goal and feature of ICKEM are to bring scientists, engineers, and industry researchers together to exchange and share their experiences and research results, and discuss the practical challenges encountered and the solutions adopted. The articles collected from ICKEM 2022 introduce readers to the research results and engineering solutions in the area of materials for application in machinery, environmental engineering, biomedicine, electronics and electrical engineering. This edition will be helpful to a wide range of engineers and academics for many branches of modern production.

The 6th International Conference on Material Engineering and Manufacturing (ICMEM 2022), the 7th International Conference on Civil Engineering and Materials Science (ICCEMS 2022) and the 5th International Conference on Materials Design and Applications (ICMDA 2022) were held via the online platform during April 15-18, 2022. The participants from Japan, China, France, Malaysia, Mexico, Germany, Peru, Thailand, etc., actively and positively exchanged their experience and knowledge. This edition contains articles from the Conferences which considered wastewater treatment technologies, functional and special materials for electronics and machinery production, assessment properties of materials for additive manufacturing considering the specifics of used additive processes, and analysis of properties of modern green building materials and structural units. The book will be useful to many specialists in materials science in various industrial branches.
