Career Summary After studying at Aberdeen Grammar School and graduating B.Sc. with honours in chemistry from Aberdeen University, I moved to Birmingham to work with Sir Harry Melville in what was, in the 1950s, the top school of polymer science in the United Kingdom. During my period at Birmingham my immediate supervisor, George Burnett, was appointed to the Chair of Chemistry at Aberdeen University, and I accompanied him to nucleate his research group in polymer chemistry. While completing research for the degree of Ph.D. at Aberdeen University I was appointed Assistant Lecturer. Then followed a year as a postdoctoral fellow with Professor S.W. Benson in the University of Southern California, and a further year as an ICI research fellow with Professor C.E.H. Bawn at the University of Liverpool. In 1959 I was appointed lecturer in the Department of Inorganic, Physical and Industrial Chemistry, University of Liverpool, where I worked with Professor Bawn until my appointment in 1967 to the Burmah Chair of Physical Chemistry at Strathclyde University. At Strathclyde, as well as being Head of Physical Chemistry, I served as Chairman of the Department of Pure and Applied Chemistry, Dean of the School of Chemical and Materials Sciences, Vice-Principal and Deputy Principal of the University.

It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography.

  • Charles Kemball Was One of the Most Distinguished British Chemists of His Generation
    CHARLES KEMBALL CBE, MA, ScD(Cantab), DSc(H-W,QUB), C Chem, FRSC, MRIA, FRS Charles Kemball was one of the most distinguished British chemists of his generation. He was born in Edinburgh in 1923, the only son of a distinguished dental surgeon, Charles Henry Kemball FRSE , and was educated at Edinburgh Academy. It was clear from an early age that he was very talented and even in the preparatory school at Edinburgh Academy his teacher found his speed at mental arithmetic rather disconcerting. Bright pupils were encouraged towards the Classics and it was only after the School Certificate Examination that a perceptive teacher persuaded him to move to the Sciences. He had an aptitude at shooting and was a member of the shooting VIII which won the Kinder Cup at Bisley in 1939. Subsequently he was captain of shooting and won the shooting cup in his final two years at the Academy. Despite his late move to sciences he won an Entrance Exhibition in Natural Sciences and went up to Trinity College Cambridge in 1940. At this time his interests lay more with Mathematics and Physics but he later moved to Chemistry and gained First Class Honours in Parts I and II of the Tripos. He went on to do research in the Department of Colloid Science under the direction of Professor E K Rideal, financed by a grant from the Ministry of Aircraft Production, to investigate problems in adhesion. In addition to some direct investigations into the strength of various adhesives for metals, the main work undertaken was a detailed study of the adsorption of vapours on the surface of mercury, to determine the magnitude of the forces attracting the molecules to the metal.

As part of this we have created new publicity and he knew a thing or two. Once again I must begin leaflets and will soon be redesigning the society’s by apologising for that fact that this issue has taken so website, but the most important factor in making all long to appear. Our plans for a new editor to take this work is our new logo. Our previous design, over the newsletter unfortunately failed to work out, though eye-catching at a certain size, has always been so I’m afraid what you’re reading here has had to be difficult to reproduce in the variety of ways that we somewhat hastily assembled by yours truly.
