'''Materials''' are small resources that are primarily used in [[Engineers|Engineering]], [[Synthesis]], and unlocking specialised items through a [[Technology Broker]]. [[Material Trader]]s found at certain stations can exchange Materials of one type for a different quantity of another Material of the same type.
'''Materials''' are small resources that are primarily used for [[Engineers|Engineering]], [[Synthesis]], and unlocking specialised items via a [[Technology Broker]]. [[Material Trader]]s at certain [[Station|stations]] can exchange 1 Material type for a quantity of another Material.

Materials do not take up space in [[Cargo Rack]]s.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/node/335 Dev Update (12/11/2015)]</ref> Instead, Materials have a separate inventory and are stored in quantities that are small enough that they do not affect a ship's overall mass. Materials remain accessible when switching between a ship, SRV, or Ship-Launcher Fighter, and in the event a pilot [[Redeployment|loses their vehicle or is critically injured]], none of their Materials are lost.
