Porcelain and other Ceramic Insulating Materials [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1944
THE pottery industry is almost virgin territory for the worker in applied science. Despite the trails blazed by J. W. Mellor in Great Britain and H. Seger in Germany, there are still wide tracts quite unexplored. There is still no institution of university status in Great Britain offering a full-time course in ceramics, and the number of qualified ...
