C.I. van Nieuwenburg, De Nationale Organisatie van Wetenschappelijk-Technisch Werk, Chemisch Weekblad, 17 (1920), 70-75. Van Nieuwenburg became professor of analytical chemistry at Delft polytechnic in 1920, after which his views on research lost some of their exclusive focus on industry. See for example his presidential speech at the 1924 meeting of the Dutch Chemical Society, Chemisch Weekblad, 21 (1924), 223-224. 

Their proposal to transform the monthly Tijdschrift into the more general Chemisch Weekblad therefore was part and parcel of their initiative to create a national chemical society. The decision to publish a weekly instead of a monthly had been taken after strong pressure by the publisher of the Tijdschrift, D. B. Centen, who therefore, as a non-chemist, also put his mark on the nature of the new society. In September 1903 the last issue of the Tijdschrift appeared, and on 3rd October 1903 the first issue of the Chemisch Weekblad (Figure 9.1) came out as the official periodical of the Nederlandsche Chemische Vereeniging (NCV), although the ownership of the journal remained with the publisher. Jorissen and Reicher also became the editors of the new journal.
