Some Research Problems in Applied Chemistry

JSGT 1932 V16 T272-T283

 I propose to describe a few typical research problems as they have presented themselves to the scientific staff of the Chemical Research Laboratory at Teddington. This Laboratory, which has been in existence about 6 ½ years, is devoted to research problems in various branches of inorganic and organic chemistry, and is so constructed that when desirable experiments can be conducted quantitatively on a semi-works scale. For this purpose it is essential to have a well-equipped workshop with a staff of skilled artisans. Tar research, catalytic reactions under pressure, the extraction of helium, autoclaves, corrosion under pressure, synthetic resins are described.
