Carl Yaws is one of the most prolific authors of references and handbooks on the properties of chemicals and has published with giants like McGraw-Hil and Elsevier. However, his latest book is published by William Andrew and proves to be a best seller in our Industrial Chemicals subject area.
Thermophysical Properties of Chemicals and Hydrocarbons is the most comprehensive collection of data on this topic ever compiled. It is an essential volume for any chemist or chemical engineer’s library — as Yaws has amassed over 7,800 organic and inorganic chemicals, and hydrocarbons. Spanning gases, liquids and solids, and covering all critical properties (including acentric factor, density, enthalpy of vaporization, and surface tension), this volume represents more properties on more chemicals than any single work of its kind.
