I would love that! I'm researching materials for a project I'm working on so I've been reading a lot of chemistry articles on Wikipedia. I've noticed that there appears to be a set of known building blocks that chemists use to build solutions. Something like: - "Molecule bits" (rings, chains, functional groups, esters, etc.) that have known properties - Common processes for modifying/changing those bits (alkylation, calcination, ether cleavage, etc.) - A set of standard chemicals (alcohols, acids, solvents, emulsifiers, etc.) For example I often read things like: "In order to give a polymer higher temperature tolerance, chemists often add a benzine ring by calcinating the molecule using acetone."[1] While I'm sure that a professional chemist needs to be able to handle lots of edge cases, it seems to me that a lay person could get a lot of milage out of learning these standard building blocks. I'm going to have to look and see if I can find a good resource that explains them. [1] Note: All of this sentence is completely made up, I just intend it as an example.
