PROGNOSIS FOR THE FUTURE

While the work carried out thus far has appeared promising, and several patents to many parties have been issued on the technology, to date no extensive studies yet exist of field performance of CP-based anti-corrosion coatings. And of course, no CP anti-corrosion coatings are yet commercially available. Field performance tests would be required to encompass not only corrosion protection, but also durability (e.g. against abrasion), and environmental impact (e.g. runoff or leaching from P(ANi) coatings). Thus, as compared to the tried-and-true chromate conversion 

Describe in detail the principles of corrosion protection with CPs. Use diagrams if necessary. How does it differ from the most common physical and chemical anticorrosion methods  

Name at least three key advantages of CP corrosion protection coatings. Name any drawbacks preventing commercialization at present. Besides the naval, aviation and structural markets mentioned in this chapter, are there any other potential markets (hint- e.g. for industrial processes)  

What are the advantages and drawbacks of two-component vis- -vis one-component coating methods Of direct coating of doped CPs, e.g. from sols, vs. in-situ doping of de-doped polymer coatings  

What properties would you look for in a binder for CP coatings on A1 alloys On mild steel Which among the following general classes would be better for each polyimides epoxies polyurethanes

It is difficult to venture a prognosis for the future development of ammonia production technology. As about 85% of the ammonia consumption goes into the manufacture of fertilizers, it is obvious that the future of the ammonia industry is very closely bound up with future fertilizer needs and the pattern of the world supply.

What is the prognosis for the future of computational chemistry Computing hardware is nowadays stellar. Even commonplace computers are capable of handling calculations of systems containing thousands of particles and simulation times in the range of nanoseconds on a single processor. As the power of modem computers continues to grow, it is only a matter of time before computational techniques are used more routinely for problems of interest to supramolecular chemists. Calcula-... 

The essential foundation for work in this field is a thorough appreciation of the principles and strategies of carotenoid synthesis, and this is provided in Chapter 1. Also in this chapter the editors give their own perspective of synthesis and its development over the past 45 years or so, and their prognosis for the future. The reliable characterization of intermediates and products is essential in all chemical synthesis work and this is also treated briefly in Chapter... 

Firstly air traffic and the emission of pollutants from air traffic have increased rapidly over the last two to three decades, and the prognosis for future emissions indicate continued rapid increases over several decades to come. What is particular significant is that the increase is expected to be much larger than the general emission of pollutants. This means that we should expect the impact of aircraft emissions on the environment to become more important in the future than it is today. An obvious consequence of this is that good prognosis of future aircraft emissions are essential for performing reliable future estimates of aircraft emissions. 

In the following we consider the nature of LIFS in more detail. The theoretical foundations of laser excitation and fluorescence are outlined and such issues as detectability and dynamic range are discussed. Finally the status of LIFS is summarized and a prognosis for future development given. 

Autoimmune hepatitis may be classified into three (sometimes four) types according to the different antibody specificities in conjunction with the seromarkers of viral hepatitis. Further differentiation has also been made into subtypes (la, lb and 2a, 2b), although this remains controversial. In the future, it may well be possible to derive therapeutic indications or prognostic indices from these subtypes at the moment, they offer no guidance in this respect. It is, however, remarkable that ANA, SMA and LKM 1 are not primarily detectable in 20% of patients with AIH, whereas other antibodies, such as LP/SLA and ASGPR antibodies, can often be identified. (52) In this context, a more reliable definition of overlap syndromes might therefore be useful for therapy and prognosis, (s. tab. 33.1)... 

The digital patient record will be the heart of future medicine, and such a record needs to be a little more conceptually structured. It should be a structure to which we can apply statistical methods because, if we can find correlations between things in many patient records, we can use them for diagnosis and prognosis for a specific patient and also for medical research. 

In the future, the prognosis is for a number of changes. The present fragmented situation is likely to consolidate, and prediction of which sites will remain active in the next decade is hazardous. Currently, much of the information is available without monetary compensation, although site owners are finding out about their users by requiring them to donate personal information, which is used to contact them...
