Ultramodern techniques are being applied to the study of corrosion thus a very recent initiative at Sandia Laboratories in America studied the corrosion of copper in air spiked with hydrogen sulphide by a form of combinatorial test, in which a protective coat of copper oxide was varied in thickness, and in parallel, the density of defects in the copper provoked by irradiation was also varied. Defects proved to be more influential than the thickness of the protective layer. This conclusion is valuable in preventing corrosion of copper conductors in advanced microcircuits. This set of experiments is typical of modern materials science, in that quite diverse themes... combinatorial methods, corrosion kinetics and irradiation damage... are simultaneously exploited.

This adventitious finding led to synthesis of the "polysilastyrene" family of Me2Si-PhMeSi copolymers.(11) At almost the same time, soluble polysilanes were reported by Trujillo(12) at Sandia Laboratories and by Wesson and Williams(12) at Union Carbide Co.

Sandia Laboratories (Albuquerque) has recently completed a study on closed-cycle hydride engines based on the hydride chemical compression cycle (13) A practical demonstration unit was constructed to operate a water pump (lU). The down-hole bladder pump is capable of pumping against large hydrostatic heads. Coupled with a solar collection, this concept should find applications in arid third world countries.
