In terms of types, due to the multi-professional nature of technology and production activities, it has led to the diversification of its associated biological technology files. In terms of types, scientific and technological archives are among all kinds of archives, and the types are rich and diverse.

3. A series of related scientific and technological documents are regularly formed around the progress of this independent scientific research project. The complete set is the distinctive feature of scientific and technological archives compared with other archives.

4. The practical characteristics of science and technology archives refer to their strong practical use. Compared to other archives, such as government affairs archives, the actual usability of scientific and technological archives is still very strong after being archived.
