 How can I use it?

Searching for the Critical Temperature for ethyl lactate:

Type ethyl lactate in the textbox and select it. In the next textbox below, type in Critical Temperature. A sample output is shown below:

Searching for the Liquid Specific Heat Capacity for n-heptane at 25 C:

Type in heptane (or n-heptane) in the first text box. In the next textbox below, type in the physical property that you want to search (in this case Liquid Specific Heat Capacity). To the right of this textbox, type in the Temperature that you want (in this case).

Finding the vapor pressure for THF at 25C:

Type in the name THF in the first textbox. In the next section, check the box that is located to the right of Temperature. This will list all the temperature dependent properties. Look down the list of temperature dependent properties, until you find the required value (in this case the Vapor Pressure of Liquid).

 

All values returned by the solvent properties can be written back to the current document or worksheet (at the current position) by clicking on either the Write with Details or Write Value buttons. The former give a table output (shown below) whereas the Write Value option just inserts the value into the document.

Solvent Property Value Unit
Ethyl acetate Liquid Density 893.613 kg/m3

There is another option to 'Write Structure' that inputs the structure of the solvent into the worksheet or document. The number of decimal places can be modified using the decimal place roller .

We source many pure component physical properties that are temperature-dependent (e.g. liquid density, liquid heat capacity) and also a range of temperature-independent properties from the peer-reviewed DIPPR Database. We source phase equilibrium parameters from the Dortmund Data Bank (DDB) and where gaps exist in their data, we estimate parameters using the modified UNIFAC model. We collate a range of other properties of interest to the user community from various source including ACS and check values against measured or published data where possible.
