The Royal Society of Chemistry
Introduction
The Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) is an international charity and professional body dedicated to advancing the chemical sciences. Registered as a charity with number 207890, it connects chemical scientists worldwide, fostering collaboration and innovation for the benefit of humanity.
History
The RSC has a rich history spanning over 175 years, originally forming part of the Chemical Society. The organization has been based at Burlington House in London since 1857, where it houses the RSC Library and Information Centre. The library, established in 1842, has been enriched by contributions from notable figures such as Michael Faraday.
Objectives and Activities
The RSC aims to celebrate and develop professional capabilities, publish new research, and bring people together to inspire new ideas and partnerships. It supports teachers in educating future generations and serves as a bridge between academia, industry, and government, advising on policy matters. The society operates several initiatives, including the ChemSpider database, which provides comprehensive information on chemical compounds and their properties.
Landmarks of Chemistry
One of the notable initiatives of the RSC is its "Landmarks of Chemistry" scheme, where blue plaques are erected at locations significant to chemical history, acknowledging both people and events that have shaped the field.
Membership and Influence
With over 50,000 members, the RSC is the UK's leading professional body for chemical scientists. It is a not-for-profit organization that invests in education, maintains professional standards, and fosters partnerships globally.
Advancement of Science
The RSC hosts various events, including public lectures at Burlington House, designed to engage both the scientific community and the general public. These events cover a wide range of topics, often featuring renowned science writers and experts in the field.
Library and Resources
The RSC's library at Burlington House offers an extensive collection of chemistry-related resources, both physical and digital, making it a crucial hub for information in the chemical sciences.
Leadership and Structure
The RSC operates under the leadership of a Chief Executive, supported by a robust organizational structure that facilitates its numerous activities and initiatives.

Advances of the Week - Week 14 💨 Can you “wash away” soil and leave microplastics behind? This recent #openaccess paper explores using elutriation - a fluid flow separation technique - as a pretreatment to simplify microplastic extraction from soils. The method reduced 59–97 % of sample mass without altering microplastic composition, and actually helped detect ~33 % more polymers via ATR-FTIR. Less bulk, more clarity. 🌱 Read the full article 👉 https://rsc.li/3KoXLq2 #AdvancesOfTheWeek #Microplastics #SoilPollution #EnvironmentalChemistry (fb)
