Excerpt from The Analysis of Non-Ferrous Alloys
It is probable that a true estimate of the importance and degree of self-realisation of a subject (or branch of a subject) may be found in the literature to which it gives rise. Judging the analytical chemistry of the non-ferrous alloys from this point of view, it may be seen at once that its importance is of very recent growth, and that even now it is very far behind its sister-rival, the chemistry of the ferrous alloys. Fortunately there are abundant signs that the makers and users of non-ferrous alloys are determined to utilise scientific knowledge and progress to a much greater extent than formerly, and the first essential in any of these advances is accurate chemical analysis. This has resulted in the appearance of a large mass of scattered information in the technical and chemical journals. Generally these have had in view two aims - first, accuracy combined with convenience, and secondly, accuracy combined with speed. Anyone who has worked through the analysis of an alloy by the methods outlined in the standard text-books of practical chemistry will realise at once that the time-honoured processes, redolent of unlimited time and sulphuretted hydrogen, fulfil neither of these two conditions. The aim of this book is to bring within the covers of one volume the methods which in the authors' opinion and experience combine as far as possible both these qualifications in the highest degree. A further aim has been to make possible the estimation of one element without the tedious separation from every other element which so often occurs in the older text-books.
In view of the huge number of original papers that have appeared and are still appearing on this subject, this book cannot be more than a milestone on the road to greater accuracy and higher speed.
