The Industrial Physical Chemistry Group is one of the RSC's many Interest Groups. The Interest Groups are member driven groups which exist to benefit RSC members, and the wider chemical science community, in line with the RSC's strategy and charter.
Aims
To promote the industrial aspects of physical chemistry. This is achieved by encouraging and supporting the exchange of information, knowledge and opinion between industry and academia.
How to Join
RSC members can join the Industrial Physical Chemistry Group by updating their details in the “My communities and subscriptions” tab of the RSC membership area.
