WHAT DOES CHEMISTRY SET MEAN IN ENGLISH?

chemistry set

Chemistry set

A chemistry set is an educational toy allowing the user to perform simple chemistry experiments. The best known such sets were produced by the A. C. Gilbert Company, an early and middle 20th-century American manufacturer of educational toys. Porter Chemical Company, with the Chemcraft sets, and the Skilcraft corporation were other manufacturers. Well known chemistry sets from the United Kingdom include the 1960s and 1970s sets by Thomas Salter Science and later Salters Science, then the "MERIT" sets through the 1970s and 1980s. Dekkertoys created a range of sets which were similar, complete with glass test tubes of dry chemicals. The modern offerings, with a few exceptions, tend to have less in the way of chemicals and very simplified instructions. A GCSE equipment set was produced offering students better quality equipment, and there is also a more up market range of sets available from Thames & Kosmos such as the C3000 Kit. Several authors have noted that from the 1980s on, concerns about illegal drug production, terrorism and legal liability have led to chemistry sets becoming increasing bland and unexciting.
