Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book takes readers on a journey through the intriguing realm of intermetallic compounds, chemical substances formed when two metals combine. It explores both the theoretical and practical aspects of these compounds, examining their occurrence in nature, their properties, and the various methods used to isolate and study them. Intermetallic compounds have a rich history, with the earliest observations dating back to the 19th century. The book delves into the pioneering work of scientists like Rudberg, Calvert, and Johnson, who laid the foundation for our understanding of these substances. It also discusses the contributions of Matthiessen and his collaborators, whose extensive studies of the electrical conductivity and other physical properties of alloys paved the way for the modern classification of intermetallic compounds. The author provides a comprehensive overview of the different types of intermetallic compounds, organized according to their thermal properties. The book covers compounds formed by direct solidification, those resulting from reactions in the solid state, and those that exist only within specific temperature ranges. Each type is thoroughly examined, with detailed explanations of the underlying chemical principles and experimental techniques used in their characterization. The text also explores the various methods for isolating intermetallic compounds from alloys, including fractional crystallization, fractional distillation, and the use of chemical reagents. The author highlights the challenges associated with these techniques and discusses the importance of obtaining pure samples for accurate analysis. Overall, this book offers a valuable resource for chemists, materials scientists, and anyone interested in the fascinating world of intermetallic compounds. It provides a comprehensive treatment of the subject, from the historical background to the latest research findings, making it an essential reference for both students and experienced researchers alike. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
