Wide band-gap materials are considered, ranging from molecular  clusters, nanophase materials, growth, processing and synthesis. \u003cbr\u003e  The processing of composite based materials can be classified into six  basic methods: \u003cem\u003ein situ\u003c\/em\u003e growth, high pressure\/high temperature  catalytic conversion; mix and sinter (c-BN plus metal-ceramic polymer  mix); direct sintering; direct polymorphic conversion; shock  detonation; and SHS sintering.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-10-16\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e ISBN-10: 9789401063586\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789401063586\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-5592-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 240cm x160cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 386\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44359136936076,"sku":"9789401063586","price":153.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789401063586.jpg?v=1755102099","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789401063586","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
