The case for infrastructure investment in UK chemistry departments has been well made in a number of fora. Such investment will provide the knowledge generation and highly trained individuals required by UK industry as well as the cutting-edge fundamental investigations required to keep UK chemistry at the forefront of world research. The industrial benefits of investment are clear: the UK chemistry and chemical-using sectors contribute over £250 bn to the UK economy (20% of GDP), underpin over 6 million jobs and are major exporters (22% of UK exports are in chemicals and pharmaceuticals). It is important that this sector prospers and grows in coming years to rebalance the economy. UK chemistry's position on the academic world-stage is reflected by the high proportion of the European Research Councils' budget (>25%) the UK wins and from the outcomes of the EPSRC 2010 international review of chemistry.The last major investment in the key infrastructure requirements of Chemistry Departments - the "core 4" of NMR, mass spectrometry, X-ray methods and atomic-scale microscopy - was via the 2002-2006 SRIF process. There is, therefore, a pressing national need for instrument refresh. Whilst most current equipment needs are to support individual Departments, we believe that we can gain additional value by providing a network of well-equipped and well-supported instrumentation hubs within the N8 Research Partnership. The N8, founded in 2007, is a partnership of 8 of the most research-intensive universities in the North of England; all are world top 1% institutions. The N8 chemistry Departments involved in this bid combine research excellence and intensity with the geographical proximity needed for effective infrastructure sharing and are already very well-connected via research and training collaborations. Each Department has a strong portfolio of EPSRC sponsored research and extensive industrial links from SMEs to blue-chip companies.

英国化学部门的基础设施投资案例在许多论坛上都得到了很好的阐述。这些投资将提供英国工业所需的知识生成和训练有素的个人，以及使英国化学保持在世界研究前沿所需的尖端基础研究。投资的工业利益是显而易见的：英国化学和化学品使用部门为英国经济贡献了超过2500亿英镑（占GDP的20%），支撑了600多万个就业岗位，并且是主要出口国（英国出口的22%是化学品和药品）。重要的是，该部门在未来几年的繁荣和增长，以重新平衡经济。英国化学在世界学术舞台上的地位反映在英国赢得的欧洲研究理事会预算的高比例（>25%）以及EPSRC 2010年化学国际审查的结果上。化学部门关键基础设施要求的最后一项重大投资-NMR，质谱，X射线方法和原子尺度显微镜-是通过2002-2006年的SRIF过程。因此，全国迫切需要更新仪器。虽然目前大多数设备的需求是支持个别部门，我们相信，我们可以通过提供一个网络的设备齐全，并在N8研究合作伙伴关系支持良好的仪器中心获得额外的价值。N8成立于2007年，是英格兰北部8所研究密集型大学的合作伙伴关系;所有大学都是世界顶级的1%机构。参与此次竞标的N8化学部门将联合收割机研究的卓越性和强度与有效基础设施共享所需的地理邻近性相结合，并且已经通过研究和培训合作建立了良好的联系。每个部门都有一个强大的EPSRC赞助的研究和广泛的工业联系，从中小企业到蓝筹公司的投资组合。
