Viscosity, thermal conductivity, and diffusivity for more than 10,000 hydrocarbons and chemicals. Gases, liquids, and solids. Transport Properties of Chemical and Hydrocarbons is an essential volume for any chemist or chemical engineer’s library. The data in this handbook is a perfect quick reference for field, lab or classroom usage. Cl to C100 organics. Ac to Zr inorganics.
By collecting a massive – but relevant – amount of information in one source, this handbook enables engineers to spend more time developing new designs and processes, and less time collecting vital properties data.
Not a theoretical treatise, but an aid to the practicing engineer and chemist in the field, on day-to-day operations and long range projects.
