After a short hiatus, The Chemist returns with a special issue honoring these three remarkable scientists, professors, and awardees in the field of chemistry. The issue begins with an overview of Dr. Starnes’ vast accomplishments and work of over fifty years with the poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) in both industry and academia. Particular attention is paid to the development of ester thiols as thermal stabilizers for PVC.1 We also detail Dr. Peng Chen’s work with Single-Molecule Catalysis and Dr. Richard Kaner’s remarkable journey and story with polyaniline nanofibers that detail the journey from laboratory curiosity to commercial products. This issue also includes contributions from Shenoy et. al on Imidazo Pyridine Derivative as a New Corrosion Inhibitor for Mild Steel and Evidence of Macromolecular Structure of Humic Acids from Compost from Campasso and colleagues. We also present Kulkarni’s work on Theoretical Validation of Medicinal Properties os Ocimum sanctum and some desert electrochemistry in Jordan where Dr. Amayreh details the construction of a locally used Cactus (Opuntia) Battery. Lastly, this issue includes Barron’s work on Animals and the great war and Dr. Chen's article on the proper selection and application of mathematical models for estimating occupational exposure to chemicals.
