Benjamin Silliman Jr. (original) (raw)
Benjamin Silliman Jr. (December 4, 1816 – January 14, 1885) was a professor of chemistry at Yale University and instrumental in developing the oil industry. His father Benjamin Silliman Sr., also a famous Yale chemist, developed the process of fractional distillation that enabled the economical production of kerosene. In 1855, Silliman Jr. wrote a report for $526.08 on Pennsylvania rock oil and its usefulness as an illuminant that convinced investors to back George Bissell's search for oil.

Silliman blev 1837 assistent hos fadern, sedermera (1847) professor i kemi vid i New Haven, Connecticut, 1849 professor i medicinsk kemi i Louisville, Kentucky, och efterträdde slutligen sin far (1854) som professor i kemi vid Yale College i New Haven. Han utgav de mycket spridda läroböckerna First Principles of Chemistry (1846) och First Principles of Physics (1858; andra upplagan 1861). Han anses ha varit konstruktör till den första fotogenlampan (1855). Åren 1838-45 utgav han tillsammans med fadern , och från 1845 till sin död stod han som en av huvudredaktörerna för denna USA:s främsta vetenskapliga tidskrift. (sv) |
