The DDB-KI data bank was originally started for the storage of octanol-water partition coefficients (KOW). Based on these data, a special KOW-UNIFAC had been developed. Currently the databank contains only KOW-data but an extension to liquid-liquid distribution coefficients for other systems is planned. As an example, the experimental octanol-water distribution coefficients for hexachlorobenzene as function of temperature are shown on the right hand side. At 25°C the data cover a range of nearly 3.5 orders of magnitude. Numerous publications reporting this value come from sources with limited experience in the field of experimental determination of thermophysical properties and were published in journals focusing on environmental science. It is therefore of great importance to have a large database available and not rely on limited information from only a single reference. KI contains 10,726 data points for 3,781 components from 473 references (Version 2011). Selected Scientific Papers
