Reading List on Vitreous Enameling of Iron and Steel (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from Reading List on Vitreous Enameling of Iron and Steel The literature of the ceramic industry is very well covered up to the year 1906 by the Bibliography of Clays and the Ceramic Arts compiled by John C. Branner. The following, reading list, therefore, begins with the year 1907. The articles listed deal more with the chemical principles involved than with mechanical methods. References are given to the abstracts printed in Chemical Abstracts or in the Journal of the Society of Chemical Industry. These abstracts are reproduced in part below, though where the abstract is long, or where the title indicates the scope of the article, abstracts are usually omitted. Reference to abstracts will enable the investigator to eliminate many articles as being unsuitable for his particular purpose. United States patents on enameling are omitted, as they are given in the second part of this pamphlet. Directions for ordering foreign patents may be found in Chemical Abstracts, vol. 13, no. 6 (March 20, 1919).
