Review commentary

 * Notified: JZCL, WikiProject Chemicals

I am nominating this featured article for review because there are numerous tags and according to the review page there are a fair number of factual inaccuracies. I think the time has come for substantial improvement of removal of FA status. JZCL 21:13, 25 July 2012 (UTC)


 * The last paragraph of the intro is not a summary, but rather states facts not present elsewhere. It is also full of WP:OR ("However, since the Grace company itself does not use any generic names for the catalysts it is supplying, "Raney" may become generic under U. S. trademark law.")
 * What makes this a reliable source?
 * This link — I have no idea what this even is. It seems to be some sort of search algorithm.
 * Some of the refs are incomplete, lacking authorship info, etc.
