Zerodur

[edit]

Thanks for the note. Yes, I agree. A rule of thumb is that any article with a peacock-ish word "ideal" has a problem. There are some sources I can find on Proquest. It'll involve some cutting down of promotional material and the addition of some 3rd-party sources. Can you find any sources for the issues you mentioned? I have a life long interest in glass, so I'm happy to pursue this.   Will Beback  talk  11:59, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the tip about The Edge of Physics. My library has it and I've ordered a copy.   Will Beback  talk  22:09, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I finally got the book. It does mention Zerodur, twice, but I'm afraid it says nothing about the difficulty of working with it, or much of anything that'd be useful for the article. Still, it's a nicely written book and I'll enjoy reading the rest of it.   Will Beback  talk  10:06, 24 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
