The use of the 3D and 2D Debye models in the evaluations of Fe ph for holes in surface states on the (111) surface of noble metals [69] and Al(lOO) normally leads to a fairly good agreement with the results of more sophisticated calculations [55, 67, 68]. 

Let us consider a conductive material with the conductivity a, in which have been machined relatively small discontinuities shaped like dead hole. The surface has been inspected with a transducer with orthogonal coils connected in an impedance bridge [11]. 

The flow can be radial, that is, in or out through a hole in the center of one of the plates [75] the relationship between E and f (Eq. V-46) is independent of geometry. As an example, a streaming potential of 8 mV was measured for 2-cm-radius mica disks (one with a 3-mm exit hole) under an applied pressure of 20 cm H2 on QT M KCl at 21°C [75]. The i potentials of mica measured from the streaming potential correspond well to those obtained from force balance measurements (see Section V-6 and Chapter VI) for some univalent electrolytes however, important discrepancies arise for some monovalent and all multivalent ions. The streaming potential results generally support a single-site dissociation model for mica with Oo, Uff, and at defined by the surface site equilibrium [76]. 

Dislocation theory as a portion of the subject of solid-state physics is somewhat beyond the scope of this book, but it is desirable to examine the subject briefly in terms of its implications in surface chemistry. Perhaps the most elementary type of defect is that of an extra or interstitial atom—Frenkel defect [110]—or a missing atom or vacancy—Schottky defect [111]. Such point defects play an important role in the treatment of diffusion and electrical conductivities in solids and the solubility of a salt in the host lattice of another or different valence type [112]. Point defects have a thermodynamic basis for their existence in terms of the energy and entropy of their formation, the situation is similar to the formation of isolated holes and erratic atoms on a surface. Dislocations, on the other hand, may be viewed as an organized concentration of point defects they are lattice defects and play an important role in the mechanism of the plastic deformation of solids. Lattice defects or dislocations are not thermodynamic in the sense of the point defects their formation is intimately connected with the mechanism of nucleation and crystal growth (see Section IX-4), and they constitute an important source of surface imperfection. 

This procedure is used to separate crystallized product from solvent or to remove crap and solids from a liquid. Figure 8 shows the proper apparatus to use. The collecting flask is called a side arm flask and to that extended nipple (tee heel) is attached a vacuum source. The thing that is shoved through the rubber stopper is called a Buchner funnel and is usually made of white porcelain or, preferably, PP. The Buchner funnel, when viewed from above, can be seen to have lots of pin holes in the bottom surface of its reservoir. Over this surface is layered a single sheet of rounded filter paper or paper towel. 

Sealers. Mica is used in all types of sealers for porous surfaces, such as waHboard masonry, and concrete blocks, to reduce penetration and improve holdout (see Sealants). It permits a thicker film to be appHed and at the same time reduces sagging. Cracking is reduced by the reinforcing action of the flakes, and gaps and holes in rough masonry are bridged by the mica flakes. 

Surface mount refers to a method of securing connectors to the conductors of a printed circuit board by soldering appropriately shaped contacts to the board surface. Higher contact densities can be achieved and the need to drill holes in the board is avoided. Contact spacings may vary from about 0.5 cm for large current-carrying appHcations to 0.18 cm or less when miniaturization and high density is a requirement.
