and in dry oxygen at 650° C. under kinetic conditions that the higher gain in weight of the specimen in carbon dioxide was due to the formation of beryllium carbide, which rendered the beryllium ...

Although it is relatively soft (Rc 11), beryllium is abrasive and hard on tools. High-quality carbide tools are required to machine this material. Cutter life is about 10 percent that when cutting ...

ExoTec Precision. ExoTec Precision has been producing precision Beryllium mirrors and structures for over a decade.Founded in 1937 as Avimo Ltd., the company was acquired by GSI Group Corporation in ...

The optimized mirror designs come in a clear aperture range of 4 to 50 mm, including beryllium and silicon-carbide for greater stiffnesstoinertia ratio. Mirror-mounting designs include direct ...

A metallic bond between two beryllium atoms has been forged for the first time in the lab. The development could pave the way for the creation of new materials. “Going back 100 years ...
