Watts, G: Rh Rhodium -

. .

Résumé :
The volume contains two pure parts. The first one describes the properties of the metal: crystallographic properties, self-diffusion, and mechanical, thermal, electrical, and magnetic properties. The descriptions of its electrochemical behavior and chemical reactions conclude this part and, for elemental rhodium, close the gap left by the comprehensive chapters on platinum group metals, atoms, ions, and molecules in BPlatinum/B Supplement Volumes A1 and A2. The second part of this volume deals with the physical and chemical properties of rhodium alloys. Phase diagrams of a large number of binary and multicomponent systems are treated in detail as well as crystallographic and other properties of many intermetallic compounds. There is obviously a great deal of interest in the magnetic properties and possible superconductivity of many Rh-containing intermetallic phases.
