Process for separating hafnium and zirconium halogenides described
A.E. Van Arkel and J.H. de Boer describe a process for separating hafnium and zirconium halogenides by adding a halogenide of an element of the fifth and sixth group to the mixture and then performing a fractional distillation.

Aniline-formaldehyde condensation products
Aniline-formaldehyde condensation products, formed in presence of acid, are treated with a base to eliminate acid. The result is a homogeneous, easily-worked product which can be dried and compressed in molds. (Soc. Anon. pour l'Ind. chim. a Bale)

Heterogeneous metals are more liable to corrode
U.R. Evans observes that, speaking generally, the junction of dissimilar metals often constitutes the seat of severe corrosion, and that, on the whole, heterogeneous materials are more liable to attack than homogeneous materials.
