Edward John Bevan (11 December 1856 – 17 October 1921) was an English chemist. He became a leader in the affairs of the Society of Public Analysts and editor of The Analyst. Bevan was notable for his caustic wit. He was born in Birkenhead. After graduating, he became a chemist at the Scottish paper making firm of Alexander Cowan & Co. He met Charles Frederick Cross, and the pair then attended Owens College, Manchester. Cross who was interested in cellulose technology went into partnership with Bevan in 1885, setting up as analytical and consulting chemists in New Court, Lincoln's Inn in London.

  • Edward John Bevan (11 December 1856 – 17 October 1921) was an English chemist. He became a leader in the affairs of the Society of Public Analysts and editor of The Analyst. Bevan was notable for his caustic wit. He was born in Birkenhead. After graduating, he became a chemist at the Scottish paper making firm of Alexander Cowan & Co. He met Charles Frederick Cross, and the pair then attended Owens College, Manchester. Cross who was interested in cellulose technology went into partnership with Bevan in 1885, setting up as analytical and consulting chemists in New Court, Lincoln's Inn in London. In 1888 they published what was to become a standard work on paper making. In 1892, together with another partner, (who was also an authority on paper making) they took out a patent for viscose which became the basis for the viscose, rayon and cellophane industries. In 1894 Cross and Bevan took out a patent for the manufacture of cellulose acetate - this was to become the industrial process for its manufacture. He was awarded the John Scott Medal of The Franklin Institute in 1895. (en)
  • Edward John Bevan (* 11. Dezember 1856 in Birkenhead; † 17. Oktober 1921 bei London) war ein britischer Chemiker, der mit Charles Frederick Cross das Xanthogenat-Verfahren zur Herstellung von Viskosefasern erfand. Bevan besuchte eine Privatschule und war ab 1873 im Labor einer Seifenfirma (Runcorn Soap & Alkali Company). Er studierte in Manchester am Owens College Chemie, wobei er sich mit Cross befreundete. Ab 1879 war er in der Papierindustrie in Schottland (Firma Alexander Cowan and Comp.). Um ihre Cellulose-Forschung weiterzuentwickeln und zu vermarkten, kündigten Bevan und Cross 1883 und trieben ihre Entwicklung am Joddrell Labor in London voran. 1885 gründeten sie das Ingenieurbüro Cross and Bevan in London (Beratung der Papierindustrie). 1892 hatten sie mit dem Xanthogenat-Verfahren zur Viskose-Herstellung ihren Durchbruch. Zuerst wurde sie als Film und Papier- und Textilüberzug verwendet (das Patent hielten sie mit Clayton Beadle). Bald darauf entwickelten Cross und Bevan mit Charles Henry Stearn von der Tochterfirma eines Schweizer Herstellers von Glühlampenfäden ein Spinnverfahren. Ihre Patente wurden in Europa und den USA vom Viscose Spinning Syndicate vermarktet – in Großbritannien produzierte danach die Firma Courtaulds. Später war Bevan in einer Führungsposition in der Society of Public Analysts und war Herausgeber von The Analyst. 1895 erhielt er mit Cross die John Scott Medal des Franklin Institute. Von Cross und Bevan stammt auch ein damaliges Standardwerk in Großbritannien für Papierherstellung. (de)
