This definitive work is the most uptodate compendium on tungsten in over twenty years. Wolf-Dieter Schubert's scientific career and extensive research activities combined with Erik Lassner's long-term industrial and development knowledge make this an essential resource on the current status of tungsten science and technology. Consolidating new knowledge previously presented at seminars or in the technical press, Tungsten is a significant contribution to the broader acceptance of the most recent innovations in the field. The text is enhanced by over 300 illustrations.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Tungstenopliles, look no further,
This review is from: Tungsten: Properties, Chemistry, Technology of the Element, Alloys, and Chemical Compounds (Hardcover)
After groveling and scraping for every little tungsten factoid I could find, this book was more welcome than a healed disciple at an evangelical fund raiser. What EXACTLY is ferrotungsten? Got it (including some typical chemistries). Lightbulb filaments? Finally a full story. >>Basically one heck of a lot of info on my favorite element.<< Omissions? Tungsten in fluorescent lamps is barely mentioned. Radiation shielding details not found. Direct carburizing recipies mentioned but details left to REFERENCES. Thank you, thank you for the references!
