Cutting edge high temperature materials include high temperature
superconductors, solid oxide fuel cells, thermoelectric materials
and ultrahigh temperature construction materials (including metals,
cermets and ceramics) and have applications in key areas such as
energy, transportation and space technologies.
This book introduces the concepts which underpin research
into these critical materials including thermodynamics, kinetics
and various physical, chemical and modelling techniques with a
focus on practical ‘how to’ methods and covers:
* Introduction to High Temperature Research
* Basic Design of High Temperature Furnaces
* Temperature Measurement
* Radiation Pyrometry
* Refractory Materials in the Laboratory
* Vacuum in Theory and Practice
* The Design of Vacuum Furnaces and Thermobalances
With highly detailed instrument illustrations and an emphasis on
the control and measurement of the fundamental properties of
temperature, pressure and mass, High Temperature Experiments in
Chemistry and Materials Science provides a practical reference
on high temperature measurements, for researchers, advanced
students and those working in academic or industrial
laboratories.
