DESCRIPTION
“Materials of High Vacuum Technology, Volume 3: Auxiliary Materials” by Werner Espe, published 1966, focuses on a diverse range of auxiliary materials essential for high vacuum applications, detailing their requirements, composition, and practical uses. The book covers luminescent materials (phosphors), elastomers (rubber and rubber-like substances), sealants such as oils, greases, waxes, and cements, as well as lubricants. It also explores organic pumping fluids, manometer oils, and specialized cements used for tube and lamp bases and caps. Additionally, it addresses the roles of gases and vapors in vacuum systems, emphasizing their behavior and compatibility with high vacuum environments.
