You just found one. Graduate from the University of Michigan in 1981, BSE degree in Materials and Metallurgical Engineering (now called Material Science and Engineering since 1985).
Hooray! This is what I was looking for! Thank you!
So next part of the question is, how would that apply with other compounds as mentioned here:
Two pages after the above, we have a mention of "hafnium 6 excelion-infused carbonitrium"; the next page has "hafnium 8 molyferrenite". Page 69 (nice) talks of "forced-matrix 2378 cortanium and stainless steel"; two pages on mentions "854 kalinite-argium". Page 75 has another mention of the 2378 cortanium, & yet another two pages after that talks of "verterium cortenide 934".
And while I'm here....all those fun, currently artificial elements in the 100+ range like copernicium & flerovium & such: obviously they'd be highly radioactive, but could they in theory be refined to a metallic state like plutonium or uranium if enough of a naturally stable isotope could be found or created?
