Books by Keyword: Halide-Based Minerals

Description: Halides continue to be an increasingly important industrial engineering resource: as electrolytes, and in heat-treatment baths on the one hand, and as the basis of exotic devices in the fields of optics, electronics, etc., on the other. At both of these extremes, the gross or detailed movements of ions, respectively, are important factors. There may also be an important geological need for a knowledge of halide diffusion data, in an era when the migration – or not - of various waste materials, including nuclear, through natural seams of halide-based minerals is of great concern.
