Scope and content
This series represents the most complete survey of Williams' scientific writings. Included are progress reports for research done both at Polymer Corp., Sarnia and the Department of Chemical Engineering; addresses and papers given at symposiums and conferences; papers and articles, published and unpublished; as well as patents. These works are filed by year and are mainly original manuscripts or printed unpublished reports.
There are also manuscripts for works published in collaboration with other scientists, often graduate or former students. These files are filed alphabetically by the name of the co-author and may include some correspondence relating to their work together.
Finally this series also contains records relating to the Williams textbook Polymer Engineering, his contribution to Forest Chemistry, as well the manuscript to his Dunlop Lecture.
