Energy, healthcare, electronics, transportation, ecology, and infrastructure are just a few of the areas that might greatly benefit from the use of new materials and systems. This study delves into the factors that should be taken into account when determining the possible effect of a certain substance or system. This analysis takes into account ecological, monetary, technical, health and safety, regulatory, commercial, and cooperative factors. Stakeholders may make more well-informed decisions and ensure that materials and systems are used to their maximum capacity if they take these into account. This paper used the concept of multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) to deal with various criteria and factors. The VIKOR method is used as an MCDM method to rank the materials according to various criteria. The VIKOR method is integrated with the single-valued neutrosophic set to overcome uncertain information. This paper used eight criteria and ten materials to select the best one. The results show the cost criteria is the height weight in all criteria.
