A3. Profile of chemistry research in Finland
The units were asked to specify the percentage accounted for by chemistry research 
of all research in the unit (Table 2). For ten units, the percentage is less than 100 per 
cent. The smallest percentages, 25 per cent for unit 2 and 5 per cent for unit 28, 
indicate that these units do not consider chemistry as their focus research field. The 
units were then asked to divide their chemistry research between eight research fields 
shown in Table 2. Nine units gave only one field, a few units have research in all or 
almost all fields, and twelve units used the opportunity to specify additional fields.
In its assessment of the subfields of chemistry research, the panel chose to define 
these somewhat differently so that they better correspond to the actual research.
•  Analytical, organic, physical and theoretical chemistry are all in Table 2 and in the 
subfield evaluations.
•  Inorganic and materials chemistry in Table 2 are combined in the evaluation to one 
subfield, which includes radiochemistry.
•  Polymer chemistry in Table 2 is rephrased as polymers and organic materials.
•  In addition to industrial chemistry in Table 2, the evaluation also includes the 
subfield of chemical engineering.
The percentages of subfields for all units taken together are shown in Figure 1. 
These are averages of values in Table 1, weighted by the total chemistry research 
funding of each unit. The division between fields is quite uniform, the largest field 
being organic chemistry with 16 per cent and the smallest field being theoretical 
chemistry with 7 per cent.
The units were also asked to estimate the percentages of total funding targeted at 
basic and applied research respectively. These are illustrated in Figure 2. The overall 
percentages are 52 per cent for basic and 48 per cent for applied research.
