Interfaces between polymers, metals, and ceramics
This volume is a collection of papers presented at the symposium on interfaces between polymers, metals, and ceramics. The symposium focused on recent advances in the microscopic understanding of properties of material interfaces involving polymers, metals, and ceramics. The symposium topics covered a wide range of interfacial phenomena. These included properties of nanophase materials; mechanical properties of interfaces emphasizing adhesion and friction; novel interfacial characterization techniques; preparation, reliability, and degradation of interfaces; metal/polymer and polymer/polymer interfaces; and properties of ceramic interfaces.
