Like the rest of the scientific and technological community, MatWeb is committed to the careful collection, storage and sharing of data. One of the barriers to exchanging materials property data on the World Wide Web is the interoperability and interpretation problems that arise from the myriad of computer platforms and databases that exist. MatML provides an opportunity to eliminate these barriers and MatWeb has made MatML an integral part of its data-sharing capabilities.
