Title: Terminology used in Sol-Gel Processing
of Advanced Ceramics and Inorganic-Organic Polymeric Substances
Coordinator(s): R.G.
Jones (Commission IV.1) and A.
Chadwick (Commission II.3)
Remarks: Pool project
Objective:
The rapid growth of sol-gel processing in both basic and applied
sciences has resulted in a need for consistent terminology. The
development of sol-gel technology by a wide variety of industries
has led to a diverse and inconsistent use of definitions. A wide
range of interests needs to be covered in this area. Hence, a joint
project between the Commission on High Temperature and Solid State
Chemistry and the Commission on Macromolecular Nomenclature is required.
Progress:
See progress report in the Minutes of the Commission II.3 Meeting
in Ljubljana, Slovenia, 12-13 June 1998 - Chem.
Int.
21(2), 54-57 (1999)
The project has been restructured under R.G. Jones's initiative.
The Feasibility Study on Polymer Gels and Networks has been integrated
into the project and the membership of the Working Party strengthened.
The designation of the project has a Pool Project is now terminating
and the project will be launched as new under the coordination of
R.G. Jones, with A. Chadwick of Commission II.3 involved (replacing
D. Holland).
