Perovskite-type compounds, especially BaTiO, have the abiUty to form extensive soHd solutions. By this means a wide variety of materials having continuously changing electrical properties can be produced ia the polycrystaUine ceramic state. By substituting ions for ions, T can be... 

Electrical Properties. CeUular polymers have two important electrical appHcations (22). One takes advantage of the combination of inherent toughness and moisture resistance of polymers along with the decreased dielectric constant and dissipation factor of the foamed state to use ceUular polymers as electrical-wire insulation (97). The other combines the low dissipation factor and the rigidity of plastic foams in the constmction of radar domes. Polyurethane foams have been used as high voltage electrical insulation (213). 

Pnictides. Plutonium nitride, PuN, has been studied as a possible fast-reactor fuel. It can be prepared by reaction of PuH with NH at 600—650°C or N2 above 230°C. The pnictides ate also interesting for their soHd-state magnetic and electrical properties. For the latter reason they also have been prepared as single crystals (165). 

Natural resins have been collected by hand throughout recorded history and used with minimal processing. They are reported to have been used in the arts, both in paints and for polishing sculptures, as early as 350 BC. Amber, the hardest of these resins, has been used as a gemstone from early Greek history to modem times. The electrical properties of amber were first recorded about 300 BC. Following is a description of commercial natural resins that are available in the United States. 

Silver Thick Films. About half of the silver consumed in the United States for its electrical properties is used by the electronics industry. Of this amount some 40% is used for the preparation of thick-film pastes in circuit paths and capacitors. These are silk-screened onto ceramic or plastic circuit boards for multilayer circuit sandwich components.

Antioxidants are used to retard the reaction of organic materials with atmospheric oxygen. Such reaction can cause degradation of the mechanical, aesthetic, and electrical properties of polymers loss of flavor and development of rancidity ia foods and an iacrease ia the viscosity, acidity, and formation of iasolubles ia lubricants. The need for antioxidants depends upon the chemical composition of the substrate and the conditions of exposure. Relatively high concentrations of antioxidants are used to stabilize polymers such as natural mbber and polyunsaturated oils. Saturated polymers have greater oxidative stabiUty and require relatively low concentrations of stabilizers. Specialized antioxidants which have been commercialized meet the needs of the iadustry by extending the useflil Hves of the many substrates produced under anticipated conditions of exposure. The sales of antioxidants ia the United States were approximately 730 million ia 1990 (1,2).

The similarity of the results obtained on systems based on nanogranules made of materials with different bulk properties allows one to conclude that the phenomena at issue are connected only with the decreased size of the granules and not with the bulk properties of the material. In fact, when dealing with such small sizes, it is probably impossible to attribute bulk properties to them, because surface states begin to play a dominant role in the electrical properties of such objects. 

Basic physical properties of sulfur, selenium, and tellurium are indicated in Table 1.3. Downward the sulfur sub-group, the metallic character increases from sulfur to polonium, so that whereas there exist various non-metallic allotropic states of elementary sulfur, only one allotropic form of selenium is (semi)metallic, and the (semi)metallic form of tellurium is the most common for this element. Polonium is a typical metal. Physically, this trend is reflected in the electrical properties of the elements oxygen and sulfur are insulators, selenium and tellurium behave as semiconductors, and polonium is a typical metallic conductor. The temperature coefficient of resistivity for S, Se, and Te is negative, which is usually considered... 

Orientational disorder and packing irregularities in terms of a modified Anderson-Hubbard Hamiltonian [63,64] will lead to a distribution of the on-site Coulomb interaction as well as of the interaction of electrons on different (at least neighboring) sites as it was explicitly pointed out by Cuevas et al. [65]. Compared to the Coulomb-gap model of Efros and Sklovskii [66], they took into account three different states of charge of the mesoscopic particles, i.e. neutral, positively and negatively charged. The VRH behavior, which dominates the electrical properties at low temperatures, can conclusively be explained with this model. 

Of all existing methods to monitor electrical properties while using semiconductor sensors, only two [5] have become widely implemented both in experimental practice and in industrial conditions. These are kinetic method, i.e. measurement of various electrical parameters under kinetic conditions, and stationary (equilibrium) method based on the measurement of steady-state parameters (conductivity, work function. Hall s electromotive force, etc.). 

A polymorph is a solid crystalline phase of a compound resulting from the possibility of at least two different crystal lattice arrangements of that compound in the solid state [42], Polymorphs of a compound are, however, identical in the liquid and vapor states. They usually melt at different temperatures but give melts of identical composition. Two polymorphs of a compound may be as different in structure and properties as crystals of two different compounds [43,44], Apparent solubility, melting point, density, hardness, crystal shape, optical and electrical properties, vapor pressure, etc. may all vary with the polymorphic form. The polymorphs that are produced depend upon factors such as storage temperature, recrystallization solvent, and rate of cooling. Table 2 suggests the importance of polymorphism in the field of pharmaceutics [45],...
