Beschreibung:
National Bereau of Standards work for NASA in support of NASA's Space Processing Program is described. The objectives of the NBS program are to perform ground-based studies of those aspects of space that could possibly provide a unique environment for making materials more perfect or more pure. The approach taken deals primarily with experimental and theoretical studies of the possible effects of the absence of gravitational forces on those materials preparation processes where the presence of gravity may be important in reducing perfection or purity. The materials preparation processes studied comprise 6 tasks in the areas of crystal growth, purification and chemical processing, and the preparation of composites. They are: (1) crystal perfection in Czochralski growth; (2) evaporative preparation of ultrahigh purity materials; (3) vacuum effects in the preparation of composite materials; (4) melt shape in weightless crystal growth; (5) vapor transport synthesis and crystal growth of oxides; and (6) surface traction and other surface phenomena.
