  • Ceramic Materials Research

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 1
    • R. Brook
    • English
    The high expectations set on ceramic materials in recent years have always been balanced by the very considerable difficulties seen in reaching the required levels of reproducibility and cost. Indications of the significant progress, which can be seen in the papers presented in this volume, coupled with the recognition that considerable problems still lie between the state of the art and the full and confident exploitation of the many merits of ceramics, provide a healthy basis for the profitable selection of future research directions. The mastery of ceramic processing and the imaginative matching of the properties of these materials to diverse applications remain among the most promising sectors for technological development.

  • Semiconductor Materials and Process Technology Handbook

    • 1st Edition
    • Gary F. McGuire
    • Gary F. McGuire
    • English
    This handbook is a broad review of semiconductor materials and process technology, with emphasis on very large-scale integration (VLSI) and ultra large scale integration (ULSI). The technology of integrated circuit (IC) processing is expanding so rapidly that it can be difficult for the scientist working in one area to keep abreast of developments in other areas of the field. This handbook solves this problem by bringing together "snapshots" of the various aspects of the technology.

  • Construction and Structural Adhesives and Sealants

    An Industrial Guide
    • 1st Edition
    • Ernest W. Flick
    • English
    Describes more than 1,600 construction and structural adhesives and sealants currently available from over 100 suppliers. These adhesives and sealants can be used for major construction and structural applications as well as in commercial businesses, schools, and offices, and by the home-repair handyman. The products can be applied to such diverse materials as concrete, ceramics, vinyl, polyethylene, foamed plastics, wood, plywood, fiberboard, gypsum board, prefinished panels, leather, and cotton.

    • 1st Edition
    • Ernest W. Flick
    • English
    Describes approximately 350 fungicides, biocides, and preservatives that are currently available for industrial and agricultural usage. The book will be of value to industrial and agricultural, technical, and managerial personnel involved in the specification and use of these products. It has been produced from information received from numerous industrial companies and other organizations.

  • Interface Dynamics

    • 1st Edition
    • D. Berthe + 3 more
    • English
    Many tribologists are today not only explicitly concerned with interface action but also with interface composition. This proceedings volume presents a timely review on topics ranging from interface dynamics to interface elimination, covering all factors such as contact stress fields, interface rheology, and boundary slip, that control the passage from formation to elimination. The volume contains 45 papers divided into 13 sessions, that were presented at the symposium.
