Barrier Quest

The Quests continue Benjamin Harm is just trying to figure out his life after college when he returns home to clear out his childhood home. What he finds are more questions about his birth and adoption. Seeking answers, he stumbles onto the Protectors of the Land, who are quickly convinced Ben is the next person destined to travel to the Land. Despite balking at the concept of Interdimensional travel, Ben finds himself in the Land on a desperate quest to find the kidnapped Griffin cub. Going on a fantastical sea voyage to the mystical Barrier, Ben learns the value of nurture versus nature, destiny versus existing. His trek will bring him knowledge about his heritage, his unique capabilities and his impact on the Land. Join Ben as he embarks on a journey that will take him to the ends of the Land, and beyond.

It is intended that the book will be a practical guide to provide any reader with the basic information to help them understand what is necessary in order to produce a good barrier coated web or to improve the quality of any existing barrier product. After providing an introduction, where the terminology is outlined and some of the science is given (keeping the mathematics to a minimum), including barrier testing methods, the vacuum deposition process will be described. In theory a thin layer of metal or glass-like material should be enough to convert any polymer film into a perfect barrier material. The reality is that all barrier coatings have their performance limited by the defects in the coating. This book looks at the whole process from the source materials through to the post deposition handling of the coated material. This holistic view of the vacuum coating process provides a description of the common sources of defects and includes the possible methods of limiting the defects. This enables readers to decide where their development efforts and money can best be used to improve the barrier performance of their own process or materials. The 2nd edition contains at least 20% new material including additional barrier testing techniques that have been developed and testing and cleaning equipment brought to market since the 1st edition was published in 2010. The topic of adhesion is covered in more detail and there is a section on the Hanson Solubility Parameter which is a method of predicting the solubility of gases or liquids in materials.

The Journey of The Path is a pilgrimage to reconnect with The Source. The Three Great Quests are the swinging hammer and sparking anvil of technology. The Chamber of Initiation is the transcendent experience of The Thunderbolt of Enlightenment. As One, they are a movement into a condition, which reincarnates us out of the ashes of yesterday, and transforms us into The Phoenix of Tomorrow.
