Boron and Refractory Borides
V. I. MATKOVICH During the meeting of the International Symposium on Boron held in October, 1972 in Tbilisi, U.S.S.R., the idea was proposed to assemble a review of boron and refractory borides by the specialists present. The advantages of such a work were immediately apparent. Such diverse applications of borides as in protective armor, nuclear reactors, coat ings, reinforcement, etc. can hardly all be presented in sufficient detail by a single author. On the other hand it was also recognized that with so much specialization, some areas of interest may not be covered. Within the last decade or two a number of areas have been developed in which the use of refractory borides is growing and im...
Literature Survey on Synthesis, Properties, and Applications of Selected Boride Compounds
A comprehensive review of the literature was made to assist in providing background information needed for future work concerning boride materials. The materials reviewed included solid bodies of TiB2, ZrB/2, HfB2, VB2, NbB2, TaB2, CrB2, and ThB4. Information is presented on synthesis, properties, and applications of the selected boride compounds, including selected abstracts and articles. This documentary search, by showing many gaps and wide scatter where information is available, demonstrates the need for the development of authoritative scientific information on borides applicable to future technological requirements.
Materials Science of Carbides, Nitrides and Borides
A survey of current research on a wide range of carbide, nitride and boride materials, covering the general issues relevant to the development and characterisation of a variety of advanced materials. Topics include structure and electronic properties, modeling, processing, high-temperature chemistry, oxidation and corrosion, mechanical behaviour, manufacturing and applications. The volume complements more specialised books on specific materials as well as more general texts on ceramics or hard materials, presenting a survey of materials research as a key to technological development. After decades of research, the materials are being used in electronics, wear resistant, refractory and other applications, but numerous new applications are possible. Roughly equal numbers of papers cover theoretical and experimental research in the general field of materials science of refractory materials. Audience: Researchers and graduate students in materials science and engineering.
