  • Herwig Schottenberger

20 January 2016

Bis(1,4-diamino-1,2,4-triazolium) sulfate (1) was obtained from the corresponding chloride by ion metathesis using Ag2SO4. Further metathesis with barium 5,5′-azotetrazolate yielded bis(1,4-diamino-1,2,4-triazolium) 5,5′-azotetrazolate (2). Numerous...

A Review on the Properties of Iron Aluminide Intermetallics

  • Mohammad Zamanzade,
  • Afrooz Barnoush and
  • Christian Motz

14 January 2016

Iron aluminides have been among the most studied intermetallics since the 1930s, when their excellent oxidation resistance was first noticed. Their low cost of production, low density, high strength-to-weight ratios, good wear resistance, ease of fab...

Crystal Dislocations

  • Ronald W. Armstrong

6 January 2016

Crystal dislocations were invisible until the mid-20th century although their presence had been inferred; the atomic and molecular scale dimensions had prevented earlier discovery. Now they are normally known to be just about everywhere, for example,...
