This definitive volume, containing contributions
from internationally acclaimed experts, provides a comprehensive review
of the various materials which can be used as references for checking
the correct operation or for the calibration of equipment used for physicochemical
measurement. The important areas covered include density, viscosity,
enthalpy, thermal and electrolytic conductivity, optical rotation and
refraction, and relative molar mass. It will become an essential reference
text for all physical and analytical chemists and chemical engineers,
and those working in standards laboratories.
