It would probably be correct to say that today not a single new area of technology can do without rare metals, their alloys or compounds. For example, fine-filament suspensions for navigation instruments of high precision are made from rhenium alloys; gallium goes into the manufac-ture of so-called liquid seals in vacuum equipment and high-temperature thermometers and pressure gauges; cesium is the most important compo-nent of photocells used in flaw detectors and some other instruments; hafnium is the material from which control rods of nuclear reactors are made and is also promising as a component of superalloys being de-veloped for aviation and rocketry; a thin layer of indium deposited on ball-bearings protects them from erosion and increases
This book tells about some rare metals (including those called trace elements) and can be regarded as a second part of S. I. Venetsky's Tales About Metals (It was published in English by Mir Publishers, Moscow, in 1981).
The author follows the same principle as in his previous work: rather than giving the reader any exhaustive information about every chemical element he describes, to tell him some interesting facts, curious incidents and tales associated with rare metals, to tell about the thorny path of any major scientific discovery and about some paths yet to be trodden in the amazing world of metals.
