Miscellaneous Papers and Researches: Especially on the Safety Lamp, and Flame, and on the Protection of the Copper Sheathing of Ships, from 1815 to 1828 is a book written by Humphry Davy and published in 1840. The book is a collection of various papers and researches conducted by Davy on the topics of safety lamps, flame, and the protection of copper sheathing of ships. Davy was a renowned chemist and inventor who is credited with the invention of the safety lamp, which was used to prevent explosions in coal mines. The book includes his research and experiments on the safety lamp, as well as his investigations into the nature of flame and combustion. In addition to his work on safety lamps and flame, Davy also conducted research on the protection of copper sheathing of ships. Copper sheathing was used to protect the wooden hulls of ships from marine organisms that could damage them. However, copper sheathing also caused corrosion, and Davy's research focused on finding ways to prevent this corrosion while still maintaining the protective benefits of copper sheathing. Overall, Miscellaneous Papers and Researches is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of science and technology, particularly in the fields of chemistry and engineering. It provides insight into the work of one of the most important scientists of the 19th century and his contributions to the fields of safety and marine engineering.The Collected Works Of Sir Humphrey Davy V6.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
