功能材料是当前材料科学与工程学科中最活跃的领域之一。上海钢铁研究所一直从事金属功能材料的研究与开发,在六、七十年代曾经为上海基础工业的建立和发展作出重要贡献,在国内、外有一定影响。近几年,为提高上钢所的经济效益,大家发表了不少意见。有人说,大型钢铁联合企业的效益好,是因为它们的产品量大。这一说法不无道理。但是搞“量大”产品的人,其实也有一本难念的经。最近台湾成功大学一位教授来沪访问,他在上钢所和上海宝钢研究院作技术交流时曾提到,台湾中钢很担心那些“量大”而技术不算高的产品 Functional Materials is currently one of the most active areas in Materials Science and Engineering. Shanghai Institute of Iron and Steel has been engaged in metal functional materials research and development in the sixties and seventies once for the establishment and development of basic industries in Shanghai to make an important contribution at home and abroad have a certain impact. In recent years, to improve the economic benefits of the steel, we made a lot of opinions. Some people say that the benefits of large iron and steel complexes are good because of the large amount of their products. This statement is not unreasonable. However, engage in “large quantities of” products, in fact, there is a sad study. Recently, a professor from Chenggao University in Taiwan visited Shanghai. When he made technical exchanges with Shanghai Baosteel Research Institute, he mentioned that CTG was very worried about those products that were “large in quantity but not high in technology”
