One hundred and fifty years ago, on March 6, Dmitry Ivanovich Mendeleev published a work of world-historical significance: it reported on the discovery of the periodic law of chemical elements. At the time of the discovery of the periodic law, only 63 elements were known, and most recently, in 2010, the 118th element was synthesized. Many elements were predicted by Dmitry Ivanovich, and this fundamentally distinguishes his work from attempts by foreign scientists to systematize and periodize the data available at that time.
Glass and ceramics are those materials that literally contain the entire periodic table - from hydrogen to rare earth and transuranic elements. The editorial board and editorial board of the magazine & # 171; Glass and ceramics & # 187; We sincerely congratulate the entire glass and ceramic community on the anniversary of the main law in the history of chemistry.
