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.
The coordinator has written to about 20 scientists concerningscope and participation. An initial skeleton draft has been preparedbased upon this input. This will be revised with additional inputfrom Commission members and external contributors.
See progress report in the Minutes of the Commission Meeting in Ljubljana,Slovenia, 12-13 June 1998 - Chem.Int.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.
