| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The years between the 1920s and the 1960s saw a transformation of chemistry in several aspects. These included the development of biochemistry, polymer chemistry, quantum chemistry, and computational chemistry, as well as the instrumental revolution. Chemistry was greatly influenced by World War II and the Cold War. These years also saw developments in Japanese chemistry. In addition to historical studies on three important fields of chemistry, namely organic chemistry, inorganic and geochemistry and polymer chemistry in Japan by the members of this project, the international workshop “Transformation of Chemistry from the 1920s to the 1960s” was held to stimulate a discussion of the transformation of chemistry in Japan and/or in the world during the period with comparative perspectives. In the workshop 22 papers was read by 9 Japanese and 13 historians from abroad with three keynote lectures by prominent historians of chemistry from overseas.
