Description
The American Chemical Society (ACS) Award for Creative Work in Fluorine Chemistry honors outstanding contributions to the advancement of fluorine chemistry. It recognizes achievement in the field rather than funding a proposed research project. A nominee’s contribution may be a single piece of work or a body of work.
The award is presented at the Biennial Winter Fluorine Conference in odd-numbered years and at an ACS Spring Meeting attended by the ACS Division of Fluorine Chemistry in even-numbered years. ACS lists industry professionals, faculty, chemistry professionals, and international nominees among its award recipient types.
