The HALOGENS lamps
In 1958 the halogen lamp was introduced.
Halogen lamps are incandescent lamps with a tungsten filament contained in an inert gas and in a small quantity of halogen, such as iodine or bromide, which are chemical elements.
The tungsten is a chemical element which in its impure form is a white and grey color metal.
How do they work?
The halogen lamps have a bright light, which enables to put in relief the colors and the objects with much higher energetic efficiency than that of common incandescent lamps.
The halogen gas recycles a part of the burnt tungsten and transports a part to the filament again. Thus, the filament lasts longer and the halogen lamp lasts more than the incandescent bulb.
Where is it applied?
The market has a number of bulbs and luminaries focused to the illumination of commerce, hotels, museums, joinery and architecture in general.
Curiosities
