Additional Description

Sub-series Description

This sub-series contains the files of IUPAC’s Analytical Chemistry Division. Established in 1949, it concerns itself with the general aspects of analytical chemistry, including separation methods, spectrochemical methods, electrochemical methods, nuclear chemistry methods, and applications to human health and the environment.

Arranged in its original order, the Analytical Chemistry Division files specifically document the activities of the following six bodies that were formed or placed under the Analytical Chemistry Division’s oversight:
  1. Analytical Chemistry Division Committee
  2. Commission V.1: Analytical Reactions and Reagents
  3. Commission V.2: Standardization of Microchemical Techniques
  4. Commission on Analytical Nomenclature
  5. Commission V.6: Equilibrium Data
  6. Commission on Radiochemistry

Correspondence makes up the bulk of the materials found in the Analytical Chemistry Division files. A variety of other miscellaneous materials, including, but not limited to, reports, minutes, scientific papers, and articles are preserved here as well.
