Chemicalladen

Chemicalladen is a German-language online platform and community dedicated to chemistry, science education, and collaborative knowledge sharing. Founded in 2005, the project aims to provide a comprehensive, user-editable resource similar to Wikipedia but focused on chemistry-related topics. It operates under a wiki model, allowing registered users to create, edit, and contribute content while adhering to guidelines to ensure accuracy and reliability.

The platform covers a wide range of subjects, including inorganic and organic chemistry, biochemistry, physical chemistry, analytical techniques, and scientific history. It also includes educational resources such as problem sets, interactive simulations, and study guides, making it useful for students, educators, and enthusiasts. Chemicalladen emphasizes peer review and fact-checking to maintain high-quality information, though contributions are not always verified by professional chemists.

In addition to its wiki content, Chemicalladen features forums for discussion, a blog for updates, and a database of chemical compounds and reactions. The project is open-source and relies on volunteer contributors to sustain its growth. While it has gained recognition in German-speaking academic circles, its reach remains smaller compared to global platforms like Wikipedia or PubChem. Chemicalladen remains a valuable resource for those seeking accessible, community-driven chemistry knowledge in German.
