History
The organization traces its roots to the establishment of Chinese Chemical Society in Nanjing in 1932 and was reestablished in Taiwan in 1950.[2] For political reasons, the organization's English name was changed to Chemical Society Located in Taipei in 1979 although it still retained the name "Chinese Chemical Society" (中國化學會) in Chinese.
During its general representative assembly on 8 March 2025, the organization voted 75 to 4 in favor of formally changing its Chinese name to "Chemical Society of Taiwan" (台灣化學學會).[3]
