Knovel Releases DIPPR 801; Important Reference for the Chemical and Petroleum Industries added to Knovel Library.NEW YORK New York, state, United States New York, Middle Atlantic state of the United States. It is bordered by Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and the Atlantic Ocean (E), New Jersey and Pennsylvania (S), Lakes Erie and Ontario and the Canadian province of -- Knovel Corporation (www.knovel.com), a leading provider of revolutionary Web-based information services See Information Systems. , today announced a major addition to Knovel Library, DIPPR DIPPR Design Institute for Physical Property Data (American Institute of Chemical Engineers) 801. This database is the leading source of physical, thermodynamic ther·mo·dy·nam·ic adj. 1. Characteristic of or resulting from the conversion of heat into other forms of energy. 2. Of or relating to thermodynamics. and transport property data for industrially important chemicals used in chemical and petroleum process and equipment design. DIPPR 801, published by the Design Institute for Physical Properties (DIPPR) of American Institute of Chemical Engineers The American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) is a professional organization for chemical engineers.[1] AIChE was established in 1908 with the purpose of establishing chemical engineers as a profession independent from chemists and mechanical (AIChE), contains experimental data, estimated values, temperature-dependent correlation coefficients Correlation Coefficient A measure that determines the degree to which two variable's movements are associated. The correlation coefficient is calculated as: , references, notes, quality codes, and other information. "With the DIPPR 801 Database, I can tell where my data came from and how accurate the data is rather than simply being given a tabulated value which I'm asked to blindly accept," said Jeffery Smith of the Physical Properties Evaluation Lab at Eastman Chemical Company Eastman Chemical Company is a United States based chemical company, engaged in the manufacture and sale of chemicals, plastics and fibers. Eastman has 16 manufacturing sites in 10 countries, supplying its products throughout the world. . The Knovelized version of DIPPR 801 combines this renowned reference with a suite of Productivity Tools that enable users to incorporate the information directly into their workflow. Knovel has organized DIPPR into a format that allows it to work together with the other important references in Knovel Library. Intuitive search capabilities will call up information within DIPPR quickly, Interactive Tables allow users to sort, filter and convert data to fit their research needs, and the Equation Plotter will provide an interactive graphical representation of the data. "Knovel's enhancements to the DIPPR database make it even more valuable to industrial professionals," said Scott Berger of the AIChE. "Integrating DIPPR data directly into chemical engineering resources and calculations is a great benefit." "Knovel is very excited to add DIPPR 801 to our collection," said Leslie Lees, Director of Product Management for Knovel Corporation. "It is widely known as the industry bible for property information."

About AIChE The American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) was founded in 1908. AIChE is a professional association of more than 40,000 members that provides leadership in advancing the chemical engineering profession. Its members are creative problem-solvers who use their scientific and technical knowledge to develop processes and design and operate plants to make useful products at a reasonable cost. Chemical engineers are also at the forefront of research to assure the safe and environmentally-sound manufacture, use, and disposal of chemical products. Through programs like DIPPR, AIChE fosters and disseminates chemical engineering knowledge, supports the professional and personal growth of its members, and applies the expertise of its members to address societal so·ci·e·tal adj. Of or relating to the structure, organization, or functioning of society. so·ci  e·tal·ly adv.Adj. needs throughout the world. |
