Summary

The estimation of the physicochemical properties (density, boiling point, melting point) of a compound is a vital tool in determining its applications, manufacturing, relations with the environment, and potential hazards to workers, users, and the environment. The print component of this unique work details the theory behind physicochemical property estimation and demonstrates the methods of estimating these properties. The CD-ROM is a database of property values for thousands of organic compounds as well as a computing tool for estimating unknown compounds.
