There were 73  attendees from 16 countries. Since the topics extended well beyond  materials processing, it was felt appropriate to name this proceedings  \"Centrifugal Processing.\" \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eProcessing by Centrifugation\u003c\/em\u003e includes the traditional  bench-scale centrifuges, as well as all rotating systems utilizing the  centrifugal and Coriolis forces to provide unique performance.  Centrifugation led to the formation of sticky porous Teflon membranes,  as well as improved polymeric solar cells. Centrifugation on large  equipment improved the chemical vapor deposition of diamond films,  influenced the growth and dissolution of semiconductor crystals, and  elucidated the influence of gravity on coagulation of colloidal  Teflon. A million g centrifuge was constructed and used to study  sedimentation in solids and to prepare compositionally graded  materials and new phases. Rotation of a pipe about its axis allowed  the casting of large-diameter metal alloy pipes as well as coating the  interior of pipes with a cermet utilizing self-propagating  high-temperature synthesis. Such coatings are highly corrosion and  erosion resistant. Flow on a rotating disk was shown to be useful for  process intensification, such as large-scale manufacturing of  nano-particles, polymerization reactions, and heat \u0026amp; mass transfer.  \u003cbr\u003e  Several theoretical studies dealt with the influence of rotation on  fluid convection on surfaces and in pipes, tubes, and porous media.  These have applications to integrated-circuit chip manufacturing,  alloy casting, oil production, crystal growth, and the operation of  rotating machinery.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2001-12-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780306466540\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-0687-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 254cm x178cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 372\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47185150836876,"sku":"9780306466540","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780306466540.jpg?v=1775012637","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780306466540","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
