This is the final wallchart in a series of six. It traces the development of industrial chemistry during the 19th century in six key areas: general inorganic chemicals; colour; polymers; petrochemical; general organic chemicals; and chemical companies.

This is the final wallchart in a series of six. It traces the development of industrial chemistry during the 19th century in six key areas: general inorganic chemicals; colour; polymers; petrochemical; general organic chemicals; and chemical companies. It explains how industry has used chemistry to develop processes, such as the extraction of hydrogen from antural gass, the invention of perspex and nylon, the development of the first synthetic detergent and the first commercial reactive dyes. Within each category, the wallchart traces the development of the industrial processes in a diagrammatical and chronological order, focusing along the way on the scientists who were central to these processes.
