I'm a chemical consultant from London. I recently posted a guest article about how the UK has an impressive and lengthy history of chemical synthesis. British chemical invention has a long and illustrious history, beginning with the first synthetic dye reported in the mid-19th century and continuing through the creation of the world's first penicillin plant for antibiotics during World War II. Researchers in the United Kingdom are currently reshaping the molecules of the future in the field of chemical science.
