Produktbeschreibung

Umfassende und aktuelle Enzyklopädie rund um Herstellung, Besonderheiten, Eigenschaften, Einsatzbereiche und Geschichte von Glas

Die Encyclopedia of Glass Science, Technology, History, and Culture wird den Anforderungen und Interessen einer breiten Leserschaft gerecht, die sich für die vielfältigen Aspekte eines des ältesten, von der Menschheit genutzten Materials interessiert. Über 100 Kapitel und 1100 Abbildungen spiegeln die praktische und über die Zeit gewachsene Bedeutung von Glas wider, seit vor 4000 Jahren Glas zum ersten Mal hergestellt wurde. Uralte Glasgefäße, Fenster und Buntglas gehen eine Koexistenz mit neuen Hightech-Produkten ein, die beispielsweise aus Glasfasern, Dünnfilmen, metallischem, bioaktivem oder Hybridglas mit organischen und anorganischen Anteilen, amorphem Eis oder Feststoffbatterien bestehen.

Autorenporträt

Pascal Richet is a senior physicist at the Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris and has strong ties with Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität in Munich. He is mainly interested in the physical and chemical properties of Earth's and industrial materials at high temperatures and pressures. He has also published The Physical Basis of Thermodynamics (Plenum, 2001), Silicate Glasses and Melts (Elsevier, 2nd ed. 2018, with B.O. Mysen), as well as books dealing with either popularization or history and philosophy of science, which include A Natural History of Time (The University of Chicago Press, 2007). Among other honors, he has received in 2006 the Morey award of the American Ceramic Society.

Rezensionen

"...a rich compendium of information spanning a vast number of aspects of the use of glass as a material...Many readers will find the content--especially many of the diagrams--quite useful in their work or even as new, additional subject matter for lectures and presentations...The work is indeed encyclopedic in its topical coverage, making the volumes extremely important if not indispensable...the reader should explore the information in this wonderful set of books as needed, looking up unknown material as it arises in relevant chapters."
