Grubb, Willard T.
Willard Grubb papers, 1951-1986 (bulk 1964-1986).
This collection mostly consists of technical materials relating to Grubbs work with fuel cells, though mostly after his famous work with hydrogen-oxygen fuel cells. These materials include experimental data, notebooks, reports and articles.
Willard Thomas Grubb received his Masters degree and Ph.D. from Harvard in 1949. He immediately joined GE's research lab, and spent the next 38 years as a research chemist. Much of his work dealt with organo-silicon compounds. In the 1950s he helped to develop the ion-exchange membrane systems that became part of the first hydrogen-oxygen fuel cells. Grubb produced or collaborated on over 40 technical papers and received 26 patents during his career. In 1973, he was elected as a Coolidge Fellow, GEs highest scientific honor.
