How carbon fibre is winning the hearts and minds of the military; how the aerospace business has ridden to the salvation of sectors of the chemical industry during the recession and finally, how the chemicals sector is helping win the race to space. We also have two bonus features: a peep at how Songwon from South Korea is bucking the recession through clever production, sales and marketing. Rounding out the issue we have a piece about how to reduce risk in generic drug supply in the RX360 consortium.
