O autorze

In this series experts from the world's leading producers of special glass, Schott Glaswerke Mainz, describe the wide variety of glasses and their applications. The volumes are intended above all for experts in industrial research and development. But as a source of information it is just as valuable for scientists in universities and specialized institutes as well as for libraries.
