Carbon Dioxide in the Dortmund Data Bank
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the most important technically used components and by far the chemical that has the highest production. Most of the carbon dioxide is not produced in the chemical industry but comes from the combustion of mineral fuels in engines, power stations, and heating installations.... more...
Ionic Liquids in the Dortmund Data Bank
Ionic liquids have become very popular in the last years. They are discussed as "designer solvents" for the use in chemical reactions (e. g. biphasic reactions), as selective solvent for separation processes, extraction, extractive distillation, absorption, electrochemistry, etc. more...
Pharmaceuticals and Intermediates in the Dortmund Data Bank
Pharmaceuticals are valuable, complex and mostly expensive components used in medicine, for cosmetics, and in agriculture for crops and breeding. They can be obtained from natural materials or from chemical or biochemical synthesis. Since pharmaceuticals must be extremely pure before being traded, sold and applied the purification process is difficult, costly, and time-consuming.... more...
Quantumchemical (COSMO-RS-Type) Models
The mixture prediction add-on Predict Mix contains implementations of COSMO-RS(Ol) and COSMO-SAC that can be used for the estimation of different types of phase equilibria and excess properties.... more...
Biofuel Related Data
Biodiesel is a replacement fuel for petroleum-based diesel. It is a renewable energy and gains popularity in the last years because of the accelerating climate change.
The DDB contains a lot of thermodynamic and thermophysical data for the components in biodiesel like fatty acids methyl esters (FAME) and ethyl esters.... more...
Flash Points in the Dortmund Data Bank
The Dortmund Data Bank is the world-wide leading data base for thermophysical data, especially for phase equilibria. It also contains quite a lot of safety relevant properties for pure components as well as for mixtures like for example flash points, explosion limits, autoignition termperatures, ... more...
