“…Just a short time after Butlerow had discovered formaldehyde in 1855 and its first synthesis by von Hofmann in 1867, its potential applications were recognized. With Baekeland’s patent in 1907, a duroplastic on the basis of phenol–formaldehyde became available to industry under the name “Bakelite” 1. In 1931, IG Farben brought Kaurit glue onto the market.…”

Formaldehyde in the Ambient Atmosphere: From an Indoor Pollutant to an Outdoor Pollutant?

2013

Formaldehyde has been discussed as a typical indoor pollutant for decades. Legal requirements and ever-lower limits for formaldehyde in indoor air have led to a continual reduction in the amount of formaldehyde released from furniture, building materials, and household products over many years. Slowly, and without much attention from research on indoor air, a change of paradigm is taking place, however. Today, the formaldehyde concentrations in outdoor air, particularly in polluted urban areas, sometimes already reach indoor levels. This is largely a result of photochemical processes and the use of biofuels. In the medium term, this development might have consequences for the way buildings are ventilated and lead to a change in the way we evaluate human exposure.

“…[44] The journal also printed the lecture of Leo H. Baekeland, in which he spoke about the chemical composition of resinous phenol condensation products (bakelites), on the occasion of the conferment of the Willard Gibbs Medal of the American Chemical Society. [45] As the first article by Richard Willstätter (Figure 3) in the journal, the transcription of his lecture "On Chlorophyll" at the annual general meeting in Breslau appeared in 1913; [46] two years later he obtained the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his research on plant pigments, in particular on chlorophyll.…”

125 Years of Chemistry in the Mirror of “Angewandte”

This Review investigates the development of Angewandte Chemie since the founding of the journal in 1887 and analyzes how its content reflects the changes in chemical research over these 125 years. Although Angewandte Chemie was originally founded as a journal for applied ("angewandte")--technical and analytical--chemistry, numerous review articles and abstracts published even in its first 50 years enable the milestones in chemical research in a much broader sense to be traced nicely. With the introduction of the International Edition in 1962, the author base, which had until then been primarily limited to German-speaking countries, became increasingly international, and the journal experienced impressive growth. Today, with its attractive layout, successful mix of articles, and high impact factor, Angewandte Chemie covers chemical research around the world in its full breadth, with its many achievements and future challenges.

“…Bereits kurze Zeit nach der Entdeckung des Formaldehyds durch Butlerow im Jahr 1855 und der ersten Synthese durch von Hofmann 1867 wurden dessen anwendungstechnische Möglichkeiten erkannt. Mit dem von Baekeland 1907 eingereichten Patent wurde unter dem Namen “Bakelit” erstmals ein duroplastischer Kunststoff auf Phenol‐Formaldehyd‐Basis industriell zugänglich 1. 1931 wurde von der IG Farben der auf Formaldehyd und Harnstoff basierende Kauritleim in den Handel gebracht.…”
