Beryllium Technology at Bochvar All-Russia Research Institute for Inorganic Materials: Past, Present, Future

  • Published:
Atomic Energy Aims and scope

The work on beryllium technologies performed at VNIINM over the years of its existence is described. The role of VNIINM in the creation and re-creation of the domestic production of materials based on metallic beryllium, beryllium oxide, and beryllium hydride is reflected. The unique properties of each material are examined in detail and the prospects for using the materials in science and engineering are presented. The prospects for creating new materials for x-ray and synchrotron engineering are especially noted: beryllium windows for extracting x-ray radiation and refraction x-ray lenses made from beryllium.
