Unreferenced date October 2008 Compound chocolate is a less expensive non chocolate product replacement made from a combination of cocoa, vegetable fat, and sweeteners. It may also be known as compound coating , or chocolatey coating when used as a coating for candy. Often used in lower grade candy bar s, compound chocolate is designed to simulate enrober enrobed chocolate on a product. It costs less than chocolate, as it uses less expensive hard vegetable fat s and tropical fats such as coconut oil and palm kernel oil in place of the more expensive cocoa butter as its fat source. Cocoa butter must be tempered to maintain gloss and coating. A baker tempers chocolate by cooling the chocolate mass below its setting point, then re warming the chocolate to between 31 C and 32 C for milk chocolate, or between 32 C and 33 C for semi sweet chocolate . Compound coatings, however, do not need to be tempered. Instead, they re simply warmed to between 3 C and 5 C above the coating s melting point .

Compound armour was a type of vehicle armour armour used on warship s in the 1880s, developed in response to the emergence of armor piercing shell s and the continual need for reliable protection with the increasing size in naval ordinance. Compound armour was a non alloyed attempt to combine the benefits of two different metals&mdash the hardness of steel with the toughness of iron&mdash that would stand up to intense and repeated punishment in battle. By the end of the decade it had been rendered obsolete by nickel steel armour. However, the general principle of compound iron was used for Case hardening case hardened armour, which replaced nickel steel in the mid 1890s and is still used today. Prior armours Prior to the 1880s, all naval armour plating was made from uniform homogeneous wrought iron plates on top of several inches of teak to absorb the shock of projectile impact. A typical installation consisted of four to five inches of iron backed by thirty six inches of solid wood timbers. Various experiments were carried out in order to improve the armour, which included breaking up the armour into a laminate of several thinner layers of iron with wood between them, as well as various ... to be prone to breaking when stressed, making it less useful in naval applications.

An interstitial compound or interstitial alloy is a compound that is formed when an atom of sufficiently small radius sits in an interstitial hole in a metal lattice. Examples of small atoms are hydrogen , boron , carbon and nitrogen . These compounds are important industrially, for example some transition metal carbides and nitrides. History The idea of interstitial compounds was mooted in the late 30s and they are often called Hagg phases after H gg. ref Wells 56486 1962 Structural Inorganic Chemistry 3rd edition Oxford University Press ref Transition metals generally crystallise in either the close packing hexagonal close packed or cubic crystal system face centered cubic structures, both of which can be considered to be made up of layers of hexagonally close packed atoms. In both of these very similar lattices there are two sorts of interstice, or hole 2 tetrahedral holes per metal atom, i.e. the hole is between four metal atoms 1 octahedral hole per metal atom, i.e. the hole is between six metal atoms It was suggested by early workers that the metal lattice was relatively unaffected by the interstitial atom the electrical conductivity was comparable to that of the pure metal there was a range of composition the type of interstice occupied was determined by the size of the atom These were not viewed as compounds, but rather as solutions, of say carbon, in the metal lattice, with a limiting upper concentration of the smaller atom that was determined by the number of interstices available. Current A more detailed knowledge of the structures of metals, and binary and ternary phases of metals and non metals shows that generally at low concentrations of the small atom, the phase can be described as a solution, and this approximates to the historical description of an interstitial compound above. at higher concentrations of the small atom, phases with different lattice structures may be present, and these may have a range of stoichiometries. An example is the solubility ... more details
