Description: Lanthanum hexaboride is useful because it possesses a high melting point (2210C), a low work function, one of the highest known electron emissivities, and is stable in vacuum. This volume summarises the extant data on the properties of this material, including the: bulk modulus, conductivity, crystal structure, Debye temperature, defect structure, elastic constants, electronic structure, emissivity, Fermi surface, hardness, heat capacity, magnetoresistance, reflectivity, resistivity, specific heat, surface structure, thermal conductivity, thermoelectric power, toughness and work function. The issue also includes original research papers on: the Pitting Resistance of 316 Stainless Steel in Ringer’s Solution, the Effect of Different Modifiers on the Microstructure and Strength of Locally Developed A356 Al-Si Alloy, the Site Preference of Zr in NiAl Dislocation Cores and its Effects on Bond Character, the Effect of Different Combinations of Salt Modifier on the Mechanical Properties and Microstructure of A356 Al-Si Alloy, Quasicrystalline Phase Formation in High Frequency Induction Melted Al80Cu14Fe6 Alloy, Numerical Investigation of the Effect of Sprue Base Design on the Flow Pattern of Aluminum Gravity Castings, the Evaluation of Surface Preparation Techniques for Steel Substrates Prior to Coating, Thermal Desorption of Hydrogen from AISI 316L Stainless Steel and Pure Nickel, Structural and Concentration Heterogeneities during the Formation of Silicide Phases in the Ti(5nm)/Ni(24nm)/Si(001)Thin-Film System, Studies of the g-Factor and Hyperfine Structure Constant for Ir4+ in CdO, Theoretical Studies of the Local Structures and Spin Hamiltonian Parameters for the Cu2+ Centers in Alkali Barium Borate Glasses, Study of the Properties of CR-39 Polymer Irradiated with Alpha Particles, Review of Diffusion and Interfacial Reactions in Sandwich Thin-Film Couples and the Correlation Coefficient between Vickers Hardness and Nuclear Techniques.

Description: Transport processes in nonstoichiometric compounds are of considerable importance to engineering-related disciplines such as the high temperature corrosion of metals and sintering of ceramics. Therefore, there is a need of exchange of information between scientists involved in basic research on diffusion in solids and those involved in applied research on subjects such as high temperature oxidation of metals and alloys and corrosion inhibition.
