System of Chemical Bonds and Compounds as a Modern Scientific Foundation for Unification of Methods for Controlling the Structure and Properties of Various Substances and Materials

Abstract

Modern scientific foundation for the unification of methods of control and analysis of structural features and practically important properties of various metallic and non-metallic polymeric, ceramic materials are considered. Within the framework of improving materials' control and analysis methods through taking into account the effects of chemical elemental composition on their structure and properties, a new fundamental approach was developed. This method, unlike others, is applicable to both metals and non-metals, and implies considering the impact of both the composition and the type of chemical bonding on structure and properties of materials. This was done on the basis of a unified multilevel classification of structure of metallic and non-metallic materials, the use of a unified model and system of chemical bonds and compounds, which allowed evaluating the effect of mixed types of chemical bonds on characteristics of their multilevel structure and properties.
