The TPRC Data Series published in 13 volumes plus a Master Index volume constitutes a permanent and valuable contribution to science and technology. This 17,000 page Data Series should form a necessary acquisition to all scientific and technological libraries and laboratories. These volumes contain an enormous amount of data and information for thermophysical properties on more than 5,000 different materials of interest to researchers in government laboratories and the defense industrial establishment. Volume 8 in this 14 volume TPRC Data Series covers seven nonmetallic elements (including 18 varieties of graphite), 46 simple oxides, six groups of mixtures of simple oxides, 59 complex oxides and salts, 185 nonmetallic compounds, 19 groups of intermetallic compounds, 13 groups of cermets, nine groups of pressed nonmetal-metal powder mixtures, 14 groups of miscellaneous mixtures, 14 kinds of glasses, nine kinds of minerals and rocks, and 10 groups of polymers. Data for some of the materials have been critically evaluated and analyzed data graphs are presented in addition to the original experimental data. (Author).
