Composition, optimum metals

One way to increase the difference between the (CP/SG),, , and (CP/SG) 3 ratios is to increase the (CP/SG), ratio by modifying the metal oxide material. This may be achieved by using mixed metal oxides. A goal must be to find the optimum CP/SG ratio. The optimum metal oxide CP/SG ratio depends on the gasifier fuel gas composition. 

Many cellular plastic products are available with different types of protective faces, including composite metal and plastic foils, fiber-reinforced plastic skins, and other coatings. These reduce but do not eliminate the rate of aging. For optimum performance, such membranes must be totally adhered to the foam, and other imperfections such as wrinkles, cuts, holes, and unprotected edges should be avoided because they all contribute to accelerated aging. 

There apparently exists a critical amount of liquid phase for the optimization of grain/interface boundary sliding during superplastic deformation. The optimum amount of liquid phase may depend upon the precise material composition and the precise nature of a grain boundary or interface, such as local chemistry (which determines the chemical interactions between atoms in the liquid phase and atoms in its neighboring grains) and misorientation. The existence of an equilibrium thickness of intergranular liquid phase in ceramics has been discussed [14]. This area of detailed study in metal alloys has not been addressed. 

Austenitic types. These are susceptible to hot cracking which may be overcome by balancing the weld metal composition to allow the formation of a small amount of 5-Fe (ferrite) in the deposit, optimum crack resistance being achieved with a 5-Fe content of 5-10%. More than... 

Correlation between composition and properties of phosphate ester surfactants was exemplified by octyl phosphate with an optimum of foam inhibition and surfactant properties [301]. In separation and concentration of rare earth metals by liquid surfactant membranes 2-ethylhexylphosphonic acid mono-2-ethylhexyl ester was used as carrier [302]. 

Ueno et al. [172] observed that CuInSe2/Ti with a composition close to the stoichiometric ratio (slight excess of metallic components) could be deposited exclusively at a specific potential value (-0.8 V vs. SCE) from a pH 1 bath of uncom-plexed precursors at 50-55 A positive shift in the potential was seen to result in the co-deposition of a Cu3Sc2 phase (umangite), while a negative shift led to contamination by metallic indium. On the basis of measured electrolysis charge, the overall reaction of the optimum cathodic process was considered to involve the transfer of 13 electrons per mole of the product ...

In 1988, Cava and co-workers also prepared (88a) a quaternary oxide, Ba/K/Bi/O, and observed superconductivity at -28 K. This compound was the first "non-transition metal" oxide with a Tc above the legendary "alloy record" of 23 K. Further studies indicated (88a) that the optimum composition for "high temperature" superconductivity in this system was Ba0 6K0 4BiO3 x, having a Tc of 30.5 K (Figure 17). The samples were multiphase, and the superconducting fraction varied from 3 to 25%. Superconductivity for the rubidium-substituted compound was observed at -28.6 K.
