The first uses of microtechnology for screening applications were presented recently. For instance, Watts and Haswell [2] presented first work on microfluidic combinatorial organic chemistry. Most of the examples described apply to glass, polymer or silicon reactors, which restricts their usage to low-pressure operation similar to pharmaceutical applications. They concluded that micro reactors could be a tool for rapid reaction development and process optimization. 

Elementorganic polymers are not only highly thermostable, but also perform well under low temperatures, sunlight, humidity, weather, etc. Besides, their physics and chemistry change little in a wide temperature range. Thus, these polymers (especially silicones) are widely and effectively used in the electrical, radio, coal, mechanical rubber, aircraft, metallurgical, textile and other industries. They are of great utility not only in industry, but also in households and in medicine, where their merits can hardly be overestimated. 

The areas of inorganic and organic positron chemistry deal mainly with material characterization and industrial applications using PAS. Both chemical and electronic industries have found PAS to be a powerful method. In addition to the traditional solution chemistry of the positron and Ps [11], PAS has been developed to determine the free volume Bom-Oppenheimer approximation, such as molecular solids [14] and polymers [15]. The unique localization property of Ps in free volumes and holes has opened new hope in polymer scientific research that determination of atomic-level free volumes at the nanosecond scale of motion is possible. During the last ten years, most positron annihilation research has involved a certain amount of polymer chemistry, polymers and coatings, which will be discussed in Chapters 12 and 13. For inorganic systems, oxides are mostly studied using the positron and Ps. Silicon oxides and zeolites are the most important systems in positron and Ps chemistry. The developments in this area have on the cavity structure and chemical states of inner surfaces. Chapters 8 and 14 will discuss this subject.
