The growth of high-temperature materials chemistry (HTMC)into an increasingly important field of scientific and technological research is due to the continuous demand for new materials and the need for systematic knowledge of their physical and chemical behavior in the conditions required by the new technologies (e.g.,space and energy technologies).These materials (e.g.,oxide and nonoxide modern multifunc-tional ceramics,intermetallics),which offer interesting technical applications for such things as surface coatings,electronic components,and advanced turbines,are prepared through high-temperature processing (e.g.,transport reactions,CVD,combustion synthesis,laser ablation,and deposition)and must be stable under extreme thermal and chemical conditions.
