Edme-Jules Maumené (1818-1898) was a French chemist who determined the atomic mass of a number of elements, studied in detail the physical and chemical properties of sugars, the manufacture of wine and alcoholic fermentation, the toxic effects of fluorides and zinc, and the properties of suint. He developed a new theory to explain chemical reactions, and a new chemical nomenclature (both failed).
