Excerpt from The Chemistry and Literature of Beryllium Discovery - In 1797 L. N. Vauquelin undertook to prove the chemical identity of the emerald and beryl, which had already been suspected by Haiiy, and in the course of his analytical research, discovered that a portion of the precipitate which had previously been supposed to be aluminium hydroxide, was thrown out of its solution in potassium hydroxide on boiling. He also found that this new hydroxide was soluble in ammonium car bonate, formed no alum and was in many ways different from aluminum. These observations led him to announce in a paper read before the Institute on Feb. 14, 1898 (1798; I),1 the dis covery of a new earth.

Read at the Institute 26 Pluviose, An 6 (Feb. 14, 1898). Announces the discovery of a new earth, "la terre du Beril," separated from aluminum by the precipitation of Be (OH) 2 from K0H solution on boiling. Differs from aluminum in its salts being sweet, having a greater affinity for acids, giving no alum, soluble in (NH4)2C03, soluble and not being precipitated by K2C204 or K2C4H406. Editors suggest name "glucine" in foot note. Ann. de chim., 26 (1798) 155-170; Allg. J. Chem., 1, (1798) 341;. Nicholson's J., 2, 358; Chem. Ann. (Crell), 14, 422. 1798; 2. Vauquelin, L, . N. Sur la terre du Beril; pour ser vir au premier memoire sur le meme object. Studies new earth and gives following specific characters, sweet and astringent salts, very soluble in H2S04, decomposes salts of aluminum, soluble in NH40H, affinity for acids between magnesium and aluminum, soluble in fixed alkalies, infusible, soluble in acids except carbonic and phosphoric, fusible with borax, absorbs one-fourth of its weight of C02, not precipitated by saturated hydrosulphides.

Beryllium is a gray, brittle metal. The difficulty and expense of extracting Be from rocks are the main reasons for its obscurity. Prized for its light weight, durability, strength, and heat capacity, Beryllium is alloyed with other metals for use in jets, gyroscopes, jewelry, cameras, cell phones, golf clubs, watches, space telescopes, X-ray systems, trumpets and flutes, and nuclear reactors. An experiment simulating radioactive decay is included.

This book introduces beryllium; its history, its chemical, mechanical, and physical properties including nuclear properties. The 29 chapters include the mineralogy of beryllium and the preferred global sources of ore bodies. The identification and specifics of the industrial metallurgical processes used to form oxide from the ore and then metal from the oxide are thoroughly described. The special features of beryllium chemistry are introduced, including analytical chemical practices. Beryllium compounds of industrial interest are identified and discussed. Alloying, casting, powder processing, forming, metal removal, joining and other manufacturing processes are covered. The effect of composition and process on the mechanical and physical properties of beryllium alloys assists the reader in material selection. The physical metallurgy chapter brings conformity between chemical and physical metallurgical processing of beryllium, metal, alloys, and compounds. The environmental degradation of beryllium and its alloys both in aqueous and high temperature condition are presented. The health and environmental issues are thoroughly presented the current requirements and established practices for handling beryllium in the workplace are available. A thorough list of references will assist the user of this book.
