This single-volume reference presents data on the thermophysical properties of some 7,800 organic and inorganic chemicals and hydrocarbons. Spanning gases, liquids, and solids, and covering all critical properties — including acentric factor, density, enthalpy of vaporization, and surface tension), it is the most comprehensive single work of its kind. From C1 to C100 organics and Ac to Zr inorganics, the data in this handbook were designed and formatted for field, lab, or classroom usage. Truly an immense and remarkable datasource.

From the Preface: “This book is the product of a life's work in analysis and presentatoin of property data helpful in the application of chemical engineering and scientific principles. It is not meant to be a theoretical treatise, but an aid to the practicing engineer and scientist in the field. The data contained in this volume provides important information that is helpful in design, research, development, and manufacturing operations. It is intended for quick use in both day-to-day operations and long range projects...”

Target Audience: Chemists; chemical, process, plant, and research engineers; industrial health and safety specialists; and other professionals requiring a comprehensive compilation of the thermophysical properties of materials.
