In this report, the scientific productivity of Year 2006 of chemical engineering professionals in Taiwan was analyzed carefully with information retrieved from the database of the ISI Web of Science. The distributions of number of authors with x publication versus the number of publication x follows a general power-law trend, which coincidently comply with the Pareto distribution. The power-law indices found ranges from -1.64 to -2.22, which is consistent with values reported in the literature investigated for periods of 1907-1916 and 1969-2004.
