In Austen Angell's long and fruitful scientific career, electrolyte research represented a brief and temporary “tangent” that deviated from his normal trajectory of interest. However, with this tangential touch, he left profound and rich legacies in the understanding of fundamental aspects of electrolyte science, the ripple effect of which can still be felt today.
