Description

Beryllium is a chemical element that has the symbol Be and atomic number 4. It is a hard, brittle metal with a close-packed hexagonal crystalline structure. Beryllium's properties are similar to those of aluminium, but it has higher hardness and elasticity, as well as lower density. Beryllium is primarily used in the aerospace industry for applications such as components of spacecraft, missile systems, and satellites. It is also used in electronics because it does not corrode in air or water.

Beryllium was discovered in 1828 by Louis Vauquelin when he analysed beryl ore and found it to contain beryllium salts. In 1847 Auguste Verneuil first isolated beryllium metal by reducing beryllium fluoride with potassium metal at high temperature (900°C). This discovery led him to be known as the "father of modern metallurgy".
