1933 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Oxygen
  • Catalysis

Richard G. Weiss mainly focuses on Organic chemistry, Alkyl, Molecule, Chemical engineering and Polymer chemistry. His studies in Alkyl integrate themes in fields like Glass transition, Amphiphile, Differential scanning calorimetry, Infrared spectroscopy and Amine gas treating. The various areas that Richard G. Weiss examines in his Molecule study include Crystallography and Substituent.

Many of his research projects under Chemical engineering are closely connected to Candelilla wax with Candelilla wax, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His Polymer chemistry study incorporates themes from Hydride, Polymerization, Cobalt, Colloid and Carbon. While the research belongs to areas of Chromatography, he spends his time largely on the problem of Liquid crystalline, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Photochemistry.

His most cited work include:

  • Low Molecular Mass Gelators of Organic Liquids and the Properties of Their Gels (2424 citations)
  • Organogels and Low Molecular Mass Organic Gelators (735 citations)
  • Molecular Gels: Materials with Self-Assembled Fibrillar Networks (537 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His scientific interests lie mostly in Photochemistry, Organic chemistry, Molecule, Polymer chemistry and Liquid crystalline. The Photochemistry study which covers Phase that intersects with Physical chemistry. He frequently studies issues relating to Liquid crystal and Organic chemistry.

As part of one scientific family, Richard G. Weiss deals mainly with the area of Molecule, narrowing it down to issues related to the Crystallography, and often Stereochemistry and Differential scanning calorimetry. His Polymer chemistry research incorporates themes from Vinyl acetate, Polyethylene and Polymer. His study in Liquid crystalline is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ketone and Isotropy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Photochemistry (31.74%)
  • Organic chemistry (21.56%)
  • Molecule (15.57%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2021)?

  • Organic chemistry (21.56%)
  • Molecule (15.57%)
  • Photochemistry (31.74%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Richard G. Weiss mostly deals with Organic chemistry, Molecule, Photochemistry, Chemical engineering and Alkyl. His research on Organic chemistry frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Isothermal process. His Molecule study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Crystallization, Crystallography, Phase, Polydimethylsiloxane and Stereochemistry.

His Photochemistry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Tetrahydrofuran, Pyrene, Excimer, Fluorescence and Dithiocarbamate. When carried out as part of a general Chemical engineering research project, his work on Thixotropy is frequently linked to work in Borax, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His work carried out in the field of Alkyl brings together such families of science as Fiber, Rheology, Self assembled and Carbon tetrachloride.

Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • To gel or not to gel: correlating molecular gelation with solvent parameters. (168 citations)
  • Mechanistic Insights into the Interface‐Directed Transformation of Thiols into Disulfides and Molecular Hydrogen by Visible‐Light Irradiation of Quantum Dots (120 citations)
  • Insights into organogelation and its kinetics from Hansen solubility parameters. Toward a priori predictions of molecular gelation (77 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Oxygen
  • Catalysis

Richard G. Weiss mainly investigates Molecule, Organic chemistry, Crystallography, Alkyl and Solubility. His Molecule research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Phase and Stereochemistry. The Phase study combines topics in areas such as Self-assembly and Chirality.

In his study, Vinyl alcohol is strongly linked to Chemical engineering, which falls under the umbrella field of Organic chemistry. The concepts of his Alkyl study are interwoven with issues in Fiber, Rheology and Absolute configuration. His Solubility research includes themes of Partition coefficient, Intermolecular force, Solvatochromism and Rational design.
