Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView:
The two parts of the title reflect the two symposia documented here; altogether, 10 volumes cover 12 symposia at the Congress. The section on extreme environments contains 24 papers on oxide-based ceramics and composites; nitride, carbide, and boride ceramics and composites, and non-destructive evaluation. Among the topics are producing and characterizing alumina-diamond composites, silicon nitride ceramics for product and process innovations, and detecting defects in ceramic armor using phased array ultrasound. The 16 papers surveying chemical, electrochemical, and environmental applications are arranged in subsections on chemical sensors; catalysts and their supports; and ceramics for electrochemistry and electrochemical energy conversion and storage.
