Finding Thermodynamic and Physical Property Data
Where to Start
- CRC handbook of chemistry and physics.
-
Web version with interactive tables and PDF text.
Published annually by CRC Press. Many editions on the Handbook Table. - Almost every data search on a chemical property should begin in the CRC. Consult the index under the property in question.
- DIPPR Physical and Thermodynamic Properties
-
- TP 200 D39 Reference (Taylor & Francis, 1999)
- The Design Institute for Physical Property Data (DIPPR) Project 801 database consists of experimental data and correlations of temperature-dependent properties for over 1,900 pure organic chemicals. Collected data have been evaluated, correlated, and checked for thermodynamic consistency. From this site, you can view data sets, DIPPR-approved property constants, and regressed correlation coefficients for temperature-dependent properties, as well as calculate temperature-dependent properties in any set of units. Searchable by chemical name, CAS registry number, empirical and structural formulas, and numeric property ranges.
- NIST Chemistry WebBook
- A free web site providing reliable thermophysical and spectral data for a few thousand important compounds. Much of the data is derived from prior NIST/NBS publications. Searchable by name, CAS registry number, formula, molecular weight, etc.
- NIST-TRC Web Thermo Tables
- The TRC Thermodynamic Tables database offers a collection of critically evaluated thermodynamic property data primarily for pure organic compounds. As of January 2008 it contains information on 7765 compounds with 890,684 evaluated data points. Searchable by name/segment, formula, and molecular weight. Interactive plotting is performed with Ptplot Java Applet.
- Thermophysical Properties of Matter TPMD
- TPMD covers 60 properties of nearly 5000 inorganic, metal, and composite materials and alloys, totaling nearly 50,000 data curves and 21,000 data sets. You can browse or search by material or property. (CINDAS)
- ThermoDex
- ThermoDex is a guide to identifying nearly 300 specialized property handbooks and compilations in the library, searchable by type of compound and name of property. While some Web-based resources are included, most compilations indexed in ThermoDex exist in printed form only, and must be consulted in the library. ThermoDex is a meta-index and does not contain the actual data.
