Title: Evaluation
of Methods for Obtaining Relevant Physiochemical Properties of
Environmentally Important Organic Compounds
Coordinator(s): D.
Lenoir and J. Altschuh
Remarks: Close coordination
with Division VI
Completion Date: 1999
- project terminated
Objective:
This is the second of two new projects dealing with important
environmental issues. It will focus on various properties, such
as vapor pressures, water solubility, Henry's law constant, adsorption
coefficient, diffusion coefficient, dissociation constant of acids
and bases and octanol/water partition coefficients, and the recommended
methods for measuring them.
Progress:
A group of experts in the various measurements has been constituted.
This project will be carried out in cooperation with IUPAC Commission
VI.1 and with OECD, which has set rules for measuring these quantities.
