Fast access to product specific materials data is one of the challenges in materials technology in order to make full use of the available materials potential. Material databases in combination with the Internet are powerful means to address this issue. The Joint Research Centre of the European Commission at Petten, The Netherlands (JRC) has recently launched the web‐enabled Mat‐DB for experimentally measured data, which is based on many years of experience in this field. Furthermore, the JRC aims at creating a growing pool of publicly available materials data and analysis routines, which can be used in industry, research and education.
