Christian Friedrich Schoenbein (1799-1868), German-Swiss chemist, 1900
Christian Friedrich Schoenbein (1799-1868), German-Swiss chemist, 1900. Schoebein is perhaps best known his discovery of guncotton. In 1838, he discovered the principle behind the fuel cell, and in 1839 he discovered ozone (a form of oxygen) during experiments he performed on the slow oxidation of white phosphorus and the electrolysis of water

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the esteemed Christian Friedrich Schoenbein, a German-Swiss chemist who lived from 1799 to 1868. The image dates back to the early 1900s, showcasing Schoenbein's distinguished appearance with a head and shoulders portrait. Schoenbein is renowned for his groundbreaking discoveries in chemistry, particularly his invention of guncotton. This explosive substance revolutionized various industries by providing an efficient source of energy. However, Schoenbein's contributions extend far beyond guncotton alone. In 1838, he unraveled the principle behind fuel cells, paving the way for advancements in clean energy technology that we continue to benefit from today. A year later, during experiments on white phosphorus oxidation and water electrolysis, he stumbled upon ozone—a unique form of oxygen—adding another significant achievement to his name. Hailing from Germany but also holding Swiss citizenship, Schoenbein exemplifies international collaboration in scientific research. His work transcended borders and made lasting impacts across both countries. This engraving showcases not only Schoenbein's intellectual prowess but also serves as a testament to his dedication as a chemist and scientist. It stands as a tribute to one of the great minds whose discoveries shaped our understanding of chemistry and propelled technological advancements into new frontiers during the nineteenth century.
