New chemmacros module “polymers”
As of version 5.5 the chemmacros package includes a new module named polymers. Currently it mostly defines a few macros for usage in the \iupac command (provided by the mandatory nomenclature module) such as
chemmacros v5
I published version 5 of chemmacros nearly two months ago and so far the transition seems to have been a lot smoother than I anticipated. There have been a few support emails and posts on TeX/LaTeX stackexchange but nothing too serious.
a new chemmacros – but how?
I have written earlier about a new concept for chemmacros and about the current development of chemmacros. I really want to go along with e idea of modularity. In fact so much that I already have a draft completed (without manual and probably a number of bugs but still…). The …
chemmacros development
Regardless how the discussion on modular chemmacros is going to end chemmacros eventually will be upgraded to v5.0. And there are going to be some changes:
modular chemmacros
OK, it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything. But now it’s time to discuss a few ideas I have about chemmacros. As you are probably aware if you are a user of the package: it provides lots of different stuff. At least in my experience it is rarely the …

Cancelling compounds
Are you teaching chemistry and have ever had the need to show the addition of equations and the cancelling of compounds? Well, that’s not too complicated.
Unequal equilibrium arrows
For quite a while now there has been a question on {TeX}.SE about how to modify the ratio of the two harpoons indicating an equilibrium reaction.
