The literature source book Phase Diagrams covered the period from 1900 to 1980. To ensure that the book was as comprehensive as possible at the time, the author scanned over 22,000 references from Chemical Abstracts and allied publications in chemistry, chemical engineering and materials engineering. From these about 18,000 were found to contain pertinent material. This supplement extends the coverage by including some 5,000 new citations which appeared between 1981 and 1985, thereby providing an up-to-date reference source for people working in chemical engineering, materials and metallurgical engineering and process design.
