High Temperature Materials

Abstract

The High Temperature Materials Chemistry Conference-XIII (HTMC-XIII) will be the next in a series of conferences that are held every three years, the last occurring in Vienna, Austria.The conference will be held 14-18 September 2008 at the University of California-Davis, USA.The conference's goal will be to bring together people from chemistry, geology, and materials science who are working with high-temperature phenomena in solid and liquid materials.Selected conference topics include high-temperature thermodynamic measurements, the interplay of theory and modeling with experiment in high-temperature materials, earth and planetary materials at high pressure and temperature, materials for aerospace applications, materials for nuclear energy applications, transport, ionic and electronic conduction, densification, grain boundaries, interfaces and surfaces, and melts, glasses, and amorphous materials.
