It is possible to express any molecular interaction semi-quantitatively, independent of the type of interaction involved. All particle-particle, particle-surface, surface-surface and sometimes even complex multi-component interactions obey the combining rules of molecular interactions, except hydrogen-bonding interactions.

Metal Preparation. Sheet-steel parts are formed by stamping, bending, and shearing. Many parts require welding (qv), which needs to be carried out in a uniform, smooth manner so that the welded joint can be enameled without defects. Cast-iron parts are formed by the usual cast-iron foundry methods however, additional care is given to prevent contamination of the surface. Surface contamination causes defects in the enamel, particularly bUsters and bubbles. Aluminum metal can be formed in sheets, extmsions, and as castings. 

Slime is a network of secreted strands (extracellular polymers) intermixed with bacteria, water, gases, and extraneous matter. Slime layers occlude surfaces—the biological mat tends to form on and stick to surfaces. Surface shielding is further accelerated by the gathering of dirt, silt, sand, and other materials into the layer. Slime layers produce a stagnant zone next to surfaces that retards convective oxygen transport and increases diffusion distances. These properties naturally promote oxygen concentration cell formation. 

LEED can be used to determine the atomic structure of surfaces, surface structural disorder, and to some extent, surfiice morphology, as well as changes in structure with time, temperature, and externally controlled conditions like deposition or chemical reaction. Some examples are briefly discussed here ... 

RAIRS is routinely used for the analysis of chemically modified surfaces - surface systems in electrochemistry [4.277], polymer research [4.266, 4.278], catalysis [4.265, 4.271], selfassembling monolayers [4.267, 4.268], and protein adsorption [4.268, 4.279] have been investigated.
