In recent years the development of refractory materials has proceeded at a much faster rate than the ability of industry to utilize them effectively. This paper will discuss in detail some of the more interesting of these compounds, their potential for the petroleum industry and a process by which they may be uniformly applied to the surface of any object. Radio frequency sputtering is the name of the process and it is the intent of this paper to give sufficient detail as to the basic description and parameters of this process to enable the reader to implement it with a reasonable degree of effort. Results are cited that pertain to field problems.
