Handbook of Vapor Pressure: Volume 3 - C8 to C28 Compounds

Houston, Texas: Gulf Publishing Company, 1994. G1 - A first edition (complete numberline) hardcover book in very good condition that has some bumped corners, wrinkling on the spine edges, some light discoloration and shelf wear with no dust jacket. Handbook of Vapor Pressure: Volume 3 - C8 to C28 Compounds. 11.25"x8.5", 387 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. Handbook of Vapor Pressure, Volume 3, provides vital vapor pressure data on 363 compounds, including benzoic acid, toluene, terepthalic acid, styrene, acetephenone, xylenes, glycols, octanol, quinoline, napthalene, cymenes, camphene, benzophenone, stearic acid, and more. The data are especially helpful in many environmental applications - adsorption to remove VOCs (volatile organic compounds) from air, determining levels of concentration in air and emissions from chemical spills, ascertaining refrigeration temperatures required to condense pollutants, and ascertaining emissions from leaks. A wide range of gases and liquids encountered in the petroleum refining and chemical industries are included, such as hydrocarbons, oxygenates, halogenates, nitrogenates, sulfur compounds, silicon compounds, and many others. The data are presented in graphs for vapor pressure as a function of temperature and are arranged by carbon number and chemical formula for ease of use and quick access. Most graphs cover the full liquid range from melting point to boiling point to critical point. English units are used, but each graph displays a conversion factor to provide SI units.. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.
