Chemik Polski was the first Polish scientific journal of chemistry. [1] It was published weekly, and later bi-weekly, in the years 1901-1918 by the Chemistry Section of the Warsaw Branch of the Russian Society for the Promotion of Industry and Commerce [2] and covered all branches of theoretical and applied chemistry. [3] The journal was published in Warsaw, initially by J. Leski, and from 1908 by Boleslaw Miklaszewski. The founder and editor in chief was Bronislaw Znatowicz. [3] Contributors included Marie Curie and Wojciech Świętosławski. [1]
Marie Salomea Skłodowska–Curie was a Polish and naturalized-French physicist and chemist who conducted pioneering research on radioactivity. She was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the first person to win a Nobel Prize twice, and the only person to win a Nobel Prize in two scientific fields. Her husband, Pierre Curie, was a co-winner of her first Nobel Prize, making them the first-ever married couple to win the Nobel Prize and launching the Curie family legacy of five Nobel Prizes. She was, in 1906, the first woman to become a professor at the University of Paris.

The American Chemical Society (ACS) is a scientific society based in the United States that supports scientific inquiry in the field of chemistry. Founded in 1876 at New York University, the ACS currently has more than 155,000 members at all degree levels and in all fields of chemistry, chemical engineering, and related fields. It is one of the world's largest scientific societies by membership. The ACS is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and holds a congressional charter under Title 36 of the United States Code. Its headquarters are located in Washington, D.C., and it has a large concentration of staff in Columbus, Ohio.
Wojciech Alojzy Świętosławski was a Polish physical chemist, who is considered the "father of modern thermochemistry". He developed a static method of cryometric measurement and a new method of testing coal. Świętosławski was Vice-Chairman of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) and created the foundations for a new branch of physical chemistry: polyazeotropy. In 1933 he became a member of the Temporary Scientific and Advisory Committee
