Thermodynamics forms the fundamental underpinning of reactivity, transformation, and stability, and controls processes such as synthesis, corrosion and degradation, environmental transport, catalysis, and biological reactivity. In the materials field, the wealth of new compounds, polymorphs, hybrid organic–inorganic hybrid materials and metal organic frameworks, high-entropy alloys, and multiphase and nanophase materials attained by a variety of non-equilibrium synthesis and processing methodologies has outrun the available thermodynamic data, hampering current understanding of synthetic pathways, materials compatibility, and longevity during use, degradation, corrosion, and dissolution, and limiting our understanding of environmental contamination and transport for new materials. In the geological and environmental sciences, similar needs exist for thermodynamic data for complex minerals. The excitement of new chemistry in planetary systems, both in our solar system and beyond, requires a broad-scale thermodynamic approach. The needs of materials science, earth and planetary science, and environmental science are both overlapping and complementary. Thus the boundaries between earth/planetary and materials science are increasingly porous.At the same time, rapid developments in industry have resulted in an increasing need for improved materials, along with better ways to characterize them and study their properties, in order to explain different phenomena and process failure on a large scale. In this way, fundamental and applied thermodynamics are being brought ever closer together, making narrowly defined “pure science” a thing of the past and interdisciplinary studies, novel and hybrid materials, and broad collaborations across academia and industrial R&D the new future.
