Abstract

The program provides software tools to ease capture (compilation) of experimental thermodynamic and transport property data from the literature for pure compounds, binary and ternary mixtures, and chemical reactions (including change-of-state and equilibrium) under strict data-quality assurance (DQA) guidelines. Reactions with as many as eight participants can be accommodated. The program ensures full specification of properties with traceability of numerical values to the original document. Data are captured in the form of a batch data file, which is a coded text document containing all captured numerical values and metadata for a given journal article. Knowledge of the formats and codes of the batch data file is not required, nor is knowledge related to the structure of a particular data repository.
