U.S.-Japan Seminar: Development and Environmental Characteristics of New Materials: to be held June 1994, Mount Hood, Oregon

小行星9315330 该奖项支持12名美国科学家和工程师参加美国-日本关于新材料的发展和环境特性的讨论会，拟于1994年6月在俄勒冈州胡德山举行。 研讨会由马萨诸塞州材料科学与工程系罗纳德·拉塔尼翁教授和日本仙台东北大学材料研究所桥本浩二教授共同举办。 会议将讨论几种新的和先进的材料，包括非晶合金、复合材料、涂层、电子材料和金属间合金。 发言者将重点讨论这些材料的环境退化问题。 研讨会的目的是了解已知具有高耐环境侵蚀性的新材料的现状，以及具有吸引人的物理和化学性能但在使用这些材料之前必须确定其化学行为的其他新材料的环境特性。 该研讨会汇集了来自两国的腐蚀科学和工程界（大学，工业和国家实验室）的领导人，以建立一个共同的研究议程，这将导致更及时，更有效地将新材料引入为世界各地的社会服务的工程系统。 ***

9315330 Latanision This award supports the participation of 12 U.S. scientists and engineers in a U.S.-Japan Seminar on Development and Environmental Characteristics of New Materials, to be held in June 1994 in Mount Hood, Oregon. The seminar is co-organized by Professor Ronald Latanision, Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Professor Koji Hashimoto, Institute for Materials Research, Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan. Several new and advanced materials will be discussed at the meeting, including amorphous alloys, composites, coatings, electronic materials, and intermetallic alloys. The speakers will focus on the environmental degradation of such materials. The objective of the seminar is to understand the present status of new materials known to have high resistance against environmental attack, and the environmental characteristics of other new materials that have attractive physical and chemical properties but whose chemical behavior must be determined before such materials may be used in service. The seminar brings together leaders in the corrosion science and engineering communities (university, industry, and national laboratories) from both countries to establish a shared research agenda that will lead to more timely and effective introduction of new materials into engineering systems that serve society throughout the world. ***
