ISO collection of standards for surface chemical analysis on CD-ROM
Date : 7 January 2011
ISO has published a CD-ROM collection of 41 International Standards and related documents on surface chemical analysis, which is used extensively in many technologies for the characterization and development of advanced materials and processes.
This collection brings together the 34 standards, six technical reports and one technical specification so far developed by ISO technical committee ISO/TC 201, Surface chemical analysis. The committee’s work finds application in areas such as the following: polymers, ceramics, metallurgy, composites, adhesion, tribology, wear, corrosion, thin films and coatings, implant materials, catalysis, microelectronics and superconductors.
The Secretary of ISO/TC 201, Hidehiko Nonaka, comments: "Surface chemical analysis is known to be a powerful tool for R&D in many fields. However, it should be properly applied to get correct results. This new ISO CD-ROM will help the users of surface chemical analysis by providing a lot of essential information contained in the standards."
