[edit] Chemical Technology
Chemical Technology was an article on the Royal Society of Chemistry supplement of that name, but it has now been merged into Royal Society of Chemistry. Chemical technology was a redirect there. There were several references to both these that were clearly not to the RSC journal supplement. There is no article on chemical technology so I have redirected Chemical technology to Chemical industry and I am trying to correct all references to Chemical Technology to Chemical technology, leaving the latter of course to possibly be developed into a full article. Confusing, I know. Any better suggestions? --Bduke 02:32, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Adding industrial overview
I have taken a business history approach and added an introduction about the current state of the industry, some history from Chandler, and a short bibliography. Rjensen 20:46, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
Very good introduction. I note that US chemical trade balance is negative from 2002 -2005 according to the C&EN article (7-10-06)(also www.cen-online.org). Many of the produts have positive balances with most of the deficits being in "medicinals & pharmaceuticals". Oldsci 04:56, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
