COMMISSION ON HIGH TEMPERATURE MATERIALS AND SOLID
STATE CHEMISTRY (II.3)
Number: 230/24/93
Title: Chemical Research Needed to Improve High Temperature
Processing of Advanced Ceramics (Revised title)
Coordinator(s): G.M.
Rosenblatt (succeeding to D. Kolar)
Remarks: Interaction with American Ceramics Society and International
Ceramics Federation
Completion Date: 2000 - Project Completed
Objective:
A survey of approximately 15 internationally eminent ceramists
will result in a set of descriptions and recommendations for areas
of basic chemical research which offer particularly high potential
for advancing understanding of the preparation and properties of high
technology ceramics. The purpose of the project is to interest solid
state chemists in devoting their knowledge and techniques to the solution
of significant problems of modern industrial ceramics.
Progress:
The coordinator has written to about 20 scientists concerning
scope and participation. An initial skeleton draft has been prepared
based upon this input. This will be revised with additional input
from Commission members and external contributors.
See progress report in the Minutes of the Commission Meeting in Ljubljana,
Slovenia, 12-13 June 1998 - Chem.

21(2), 54-57 (1999).
The manuscript, completed by R. Metselaar, K.E. Spear, ang G.M. Rosenblatt,
has been submitted to the IUPAC Secretariat.
