The present stage of technological development makes new and ever
more complex demands on materials that have to work under
conditions of high temperature and pressure, in high vacuum, and in
corrosive media. In consequence special importance is now at tached
to the refractory compounds of transition metals of groups IV to VI
with such nonmetals as boron, carbon, silicon, and nitro gen. These
compounds possess high melting points, great hard ness, and high
refractory and corrosion-resisting properties. The most widely used
and important compounds of this type from a technological point of
view are the carbides, which are already fairly widely used in
various fields of technology. The present collection of papers
contains the results of re cent investigations into methods of
producing high-purity carbides and also components made of the
carbides and their alloys. Great attention has been paid to the
study of a wide range of properties of the carbides and of alloys
based on them, viz., the electro-and thermophysical, thermodynamic,
mechanical, and chemical prop erties, and also to the utilization
of the carbides as wear-and abrasion-resistant materials. In
contrast to many previous publications dealing with carbides, the
results presented in this collection relate to the properties of
carbides having a definite phase composition, corresponding to a
higher degree of purity 0 In some of the contributions the physical
and chemical properties of the carbides are interpreted in terms of
certain solid-state models and concepts concerning the types of
chemical bonding in these compounds."
