Solvent Database

Book excerpt: The Solvents Database, 3rd Edition is an extensive compilation of 140 properties of 1,627 solvents. This is a significant increase over the second edition, and the amount of information contained within the database is 65% more than the previous edition. The database was developed to contain information vital to any solvent application in one comprehensive source. It is for formulators to select ideal solvents and for safety coordinators to protect workers. Legislators and inspectors can also use the database to define and implement technically correct public safeguards on solvent use, handling, and disposal. There are five sections in this third edition as opposed to three in the previous. The extra sections were included as a result of customer suggestions.
