Heat of Formation of Nonyl Phenol & Its Derivative

Did you look here?

Actually, i'm working on a college project of mine. I need this data for a Energy Balance across an ethoxylation unit.

• Are you a student member of: American Chemical Society - The world's largest scientific society.?

No, i don't have its subscription.

If you are serious about a career in chemistry, join this organization.

Good answers, Lyn.

Thanks.

At one time or another I've been a member of ACS, ALMA The Association of Loudspeaker Manufacturers and Acoustics, SAE SAE International and IPC IPC - Association Connecting Electronics Industries, and others I have forgotten.

All these organizations have some form of student membership at reasonable prices.

Cheers.

If you are actually involved in manufacturing it, ask your ethylene oxide producer. Otherwise I would suggest searching Dow sites for information as a start.

Look in the MSDS: material safety data sheet. Search against this and you will find many references to bring it up. Then just use the MSDS search functionality, and all the info on your compounds will come up. If you require more scientifically formulated info, the american society of toxicology is the way to go, and for analytical methods to use to qualify and quantify same (methods for qualitative & quantitative analysis), consult the AOAC: american organization of analytical chemists. The analytical methods you require can be found there.

The above sources are intended to provide easily and quickly accessible info as would be needed during say a spill or other crisis. All of the above provided info is scientifically vetted (responsible,reliable professional sources & organizations that is).

I don't want to seem contrary, but the MSDS will not provide the data the student is looking for.

The MSDS will provide some, make that some of the info the student required. Had he identified himself as a student my recommendations would have been slightly but only slightly different. I don't know or didn't know the following:

1. The nature of the inquiry, specifically is the person a professional analytical chemist or a fire fighter looking for emergency info

2. If a student, I'm surprised he/she doesn't know how to use the internet if not a chemistry library to find this info, but the sources I suggest provided exactly what I said they did:references for the precise info he seemed, get that, seemed to need.

When responding to a CR4 posted inquiry, my objective is only to be helpful and provide accurate info where the individual can find other more focussed, read that: focussed references for their inquiry. Without precise info as to nature and character of the inquiry I can only act to provide fast locations for easily obtainable references.

3. Finally- as a student, the libraries and problem resolution functionalities of things like ACS & such are not accessible to him/her unless he/she is a member. Since the person didn't identify as a student, I didn't know if they even knew of these sources much less if they would have accessibility. So I provided sources that would provide both info and other sources immediately accessible info without charge.

4. Not knowing if this was an emergency situation (I received such when the well in the gulf blew and the caller did NOT identify the situation as an emergency) I provided sources that would do what should be done in such a situation: Provide and Guide. That is: provide some immediate info and guide to more precise and more specific info.

I wasn't being critical of you.

It is, after all, the OP's responsiblity to determine what, if any, information presented here is valid.

I also resist homework related questions that ask for the answer and not the path to the answer.

Cheers.

MSDS does not provides this data, and thanks for suggesting.

My work is completed though
