On Capillary Rise and Nucleation R. Prasad
A comparison of capillary rise and nucleation shows that both phenomena result from a balance between two competing energy factors: a volume energy and a surface energy. This comparison may help to introduce nucleation with capillary rise, a topic familiar to students.

Metallurgy in the Laboratory: Preparation of Pure Antimony Brooke L. O'Klatner and Daniel Rabinovich
The preparation of pure antimony is readily accomplished on a laboratory scale by the high-temperature reduction of antimony trioxide with potassium cyanide. The product is obtained in almost quantitative yield (up to 98%) using a procedure that is simple, inexpensive, and quick.

Fifty-Year Trends in the Chemical Industry: What Do They Mean for Chemical Education? Chadwick A. Tolman and George W. Parshall
This article describes some of these changes from the perspectives of the authors, whose careers span most of the preceding half-century. We describe five illustrative technological developments in the industry and changes we have seen in the industrial research laboratory, and offer viewpoints on how these changes affect the educational needs of students going into industrial careers.

The Chemistry of Paper Preservation: Part 4. Alkaline Paper Henry A. Carter
The use of alkaline paper can minimize the problem of acidity for new papers. This study focuses on the chemistry involved in the sizing of both acid and alkaline papers and the types of fillers used. The advantages and potential problems in alkaline paper making are also discussed.

College chemistry for business students using the issues-directed approach Adams, David L.
While chemistry and chemical technologies are important to business, business students who have taken chemistry courses geared toward science and engineering majors have learned very little and grown disenchanted with science. An introductory course for business students was created called, "Chemical technologies in the manufacturing system."
