AIChE's Design Institute for Physical Property Data (DIPPR) signed an exclusive agreement with Technical Database Services, Inc. (TDS), to distribute DIPPR's Pure Component Data Compilation in magnetic media. The agreement went into effect in February with the 1997 release of Version 12 of the compilation. As part of the agreement, flexible pricing will be offered for the first time. "The new price structure is in step with the technical market for PC products," said TDS President Mildred Green. "It will become more affordable to cost-sensitive engineers and software developers who need a source of high-quality data."
The Pure Component Data Compilation is compiled and critically evaluated by DIPPR's Project 801. Version 12 will contain 29 fixed-value properties and 13 temperaturedependent properties for 1,584 important industrial compounds. It will be available in ASCII file format and as DIPPR for Windows, a software package that includes TDS's searchand-retrieval program.
"The DIPPR Data Compilation will continue to be the world's best source of evaluated physical property data for the foreseeable future," said Evan Buck, chair of the Project 801 steering committee. "The new relationship with TDS will lead to a wider distribution of DIPPR data."
