Abstract
IT is well known that titanium nitride shows the electric properties of a typical metal1. In fact, the specific resistivity ρ is lower than that of titanium metal itself. We have re-examined these experiments, using van Arkels's technique2 of deposition from the vapour phase for the preparation. Our results, given in Table 1, agree fairly well with those of the earlier investigators.
