  • Exposure Data
    BERYLLIUM AND BERYLLIUM eOMPOUNDS Beryllium and beryllium compounds were considered by previous Working Groups, In 1971,1979 and 1987 (lARe, 1972, 1980, 1987a). New data have since become available, and these are included in the present monograph and have been taken into consideration In the evaluation. The agents considered herein Include (a) metallic beryllium, (b) beryllium- aluminium and -copper alloys and (c) some beryllum compounds. 1. Exposure Data 1.1 Chemical and physical data and analysis 1.1.1 Synonyms, trade names and molecular formulae Synonyms, trade names and molecular formulae for beryllium, beryllum-aluminium and -copper alloys and certain beryllium compounds are presented in Thble 1. The list is not exhaustive, nor does it comprise necessarily the most commercially important beryllum- containing substances; rather, it indicates the range of beryllum compounds available. 1. 1.2 Chemical and physical properties of the pure substances Selected chemical and physical properties of beryllium, beryllum-aluminium and -copper alloys and the beryllium compounds covered in this monograph are presented in Thble 2. The French chemist Vauquelin discovered beryllium in 1798 as the oxide, while analysing emerald to prove an analogous composition (Newland, 1984). The metallc element was first isolated in independent experiments by Wöhler (1828) and Bussy (1828), who called it 'glucinium' owing to the sweet taste of its salts; that name is stil used in the French chemical literature. Wöhler's name 'beryllum' was offcially recognized by IUPAe in 1957 (WHO, 1990). The atomic weight and corn mon valence of beryllum were originally the subject of much controversy but were correctly predicted by Mendeleev to be 9 and + 2, respectively (Everest, 1973).
