Composite materials categories

A great number of measurements have been reported for articles electroplated with zinc. The various aims have been evaluation of the corrosion rate of zinc that had been plated in a number of commercial cyanide-free zinc baths," comparison of the corrosion rate of a composite material (zinc with codeposits of various oxides) and of pure zinc deposits," corrosion testing of various alloyed zinc platings (Zn-Ni, Zn-Co, Zn-Fe), with or without subsequent post-treatment. Most of the work in the last category was only recorded in internal reports. The published work consists of an examination of the corrosion behavior of a ctoomated Zn-Fe...

The present review is mainly concerned with the preparation and functionalization of micro compositional materials with cellulosic polysaccharides as the principal component, including four major categories graft copolymers, miscible or compatible polymer blends and networks, polysaccharide/inorganic nanohybrids, and mesomorphic ordered systems. Ultrathin layers of cellulosic... 

A nonactive electrode may include noble metals such as gold, silver, and platinum, the so-called sp-metals such as In, Ga, Cd, Bi, as well as transition (or d) metals such as nickel or cobalt. Carbon electrodes and semiconductors such as indium tin oxide [1], diamond [2], and conducting polymers may fall into the category of nonactive electrodes in appropriate solutions, as do composite materials that contain metal oxides or chalcogenides. The behavior of active electrodes in nonaqueous solution is discussed separately in the next chapter. 

In other respects, we can consider zeohte membranes as pertaining to the ceramic material category. Indeed zeolites are classified for the most part as microporous, crystalline silico-aluminate stmctures with different alumininum/silicon ratios. Thus, the chemical compositions are close to those of ceramic oxide membranes, in particular of microporous silica and alumina membranes. On the other hand, zeohtes are crystalline materials and they have a structural porosity very different from microporous amorphous silica [124]. Zeohte membranes are well adapted to the separation of gases, in particular H2 from hydrocarbons, but these membranes are not very selective for the separation of mixtures of noncondensable gases. 

This is a huge general category of materials, which includes both thermoplastics and thermosetting polymers. Tabular data on the corrosion resistance of these materials in a wide range of environments are available from a variety of sources. Commonly used materials of construction in the CPI include polyvinyl chloride (PVC and CPVC), polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polycarbonate, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), fiberglass composite materials, and a variety of epoxies used for coatings or adhesives. 

The use of coordination compounds in SCFs is rather larger than one might initially expect [1]. The major applications can be divided into two broad categories (1) the transport of metals, which includes selective extraction, deposition of metal and oxide films and impregnation of metals as a route to composite materials and (2) synthesis and reactions, which covers a wide range of topics from the synthesis of oxides and other solid state materials to the reactions of organometallic compounds. This chapter focuses on the synthesis of organometallic compounds because this is the area where the majority of the new experimental techniques have been developed. The chapter complements chapter 3.1 and 3.2 which cover, respectively, vibrational and NMR spectroscopy, because IR spectroscopy, and to a lesser extent NMR, have been key tools in the exploration of this chemistry.
