The Office of Naval Research's Polymer Matrix Composites (PMC) program has invested significantly in developing new structural fibers with better thermo-oxidative resistance, new non-toxic resins systems and sandwich cores with enhanced resistance to fire and its propagation, new additives to improve PMC inter-laminar properties, and new resin infusion models and processing tools for improving product quality and lowering manufacturing costs.

The Office of Naval Research Undersea Weapons Program develops technologies for current and next-generation, offensive and defensive weapons capable of engaging submarines, surface ships and threat torpedoes.

The Organic Photovoltaics program is part of the Office of Naval Research's Sea Warfare and Weapons Department.

Naval assets, large and small, spend months to years at sea exposed to considerable biofouling pressures. The Office of Naval Research's Biofouling Control program sponsors research to develop antifouling/fouling release coatings and the mechanics underlying such materials.

The Office of Naval Research's Computer-Aided Materials Design (CAMD) program funds research projects in materials design.

The Navy faces the complex task of efficiently managing diverse material streams, either generated as operational byproducts or at the end of their service life. The Office of Naval Research's Materials Treatment and Recovery program ensures their appropriate treatment and recovery.

The Office of Naval Research's Propulsion Materials program involves, in part, the kinetics and thermodynamics of materials interactions and materials stability under marine operating environments and temperatures.

The Office of Naval Research's Structural Metals program emphasizes developing the fundamental understanding needed to discover, design, and produce high-performance structural metals.

Dielectric Films for Capacitors is an Office of Naval Research program.

The Office of Naval Research's Acoustic Transduction Materials and Devices program supports basic and applied research on materials and device technologies for Navy applications that generate, detect and suppress undersea signal for navigation, threat detection, weapons guidance, communication and the like.
