Description:
Since their first recognition in mineral forming processes some 150 years ago chemical vapor transport reactions (CVTR) have attracted continuous scientific interest. Due to the pioneering work of Harald Schäfer quantitative understanding and exploitation of transport reactions for crystal growth, synthesis, investigation of high-temperature gas species, and thermodynamic studies have become possible. Renewed interest in CVT is triggered by the demand of material sciences for novel compounds with tailor-made physical properties and by the need for efficient recycling strategies for various metals from industrial waste.
