Proper Use of the DIPPR 801 Database for Creation of Models, Methods, and Processes

Abstract

The Design Institute for Physical Properties (DIPPR) maintains the DIPPR 801 database for the American Institute of Chemical Engineers. The 801 database is the largest collection of critically evaluated, pure-species, thermophysical property data in the world and is used by engineers and academics. This paper is a response to misuse of the DIPPR 801 database in the literature. To help researchers avoid misuse, the critical evaluation process for property values is explained, and common mistakes that occur in the literature are outlined. A guide to using the DIPPR database for both academic and industrial use is also included.

Adopting a Residual‐Energy‐Based Approach to Calculate the Solubility Parameters of n‐Alkanes

“…In this section, a data bank of available experimental SP values comprising 133 members of the alkane family (naphthenic and paraffinic) is gathered and employed to compare and evaluate the results of two general approaches. All the properties of substances and the empirical values of SP were gathered from the DIPPR database, which ensures the best SP results, since SP, heat of vaporization, and liquid volume are interconnected properties, and thus a rigorous relation and thermodynamic consistency are ensured [60]. The first, major approach (Approach 1) uses EOS methods either with or without liquid volume-shift correction and inter-nal pressure or internal residual energy concepts.…”

Development of Solubility Prediction Models with Ensemble Learning

“…The property data in the database have been carefully curated and validated through a vigorous process to ensure their consistency and accuracy, which is the "golden standard" for chemical property values. 27 The independent and dependent variables used in this study are the physical constants section of the DIPPR 801 database, which includes solubility parameters for 1889 chemicals at 298.15 K and atmospheric pressure after excluding invalid entries and outliers. A summary of the database is shown in Table 1.…”

“…The DIPPR 801 database was developed by the Design Institute for Physical Properties (DIPPR), which is a consortium established by the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) in response to the industry demand for consistent property data. The property data in the database have been carefully curated and validated through a vigorous process to ensure their consistency and accuracy, which is the “golden standard” for chemical property values …”

Modelamiento de la viscosidad dinámica de sustancias puras a partir de la teoría de entropía residual

“…Finalmente, en la columna 8 de la misma tabla se tiene la incertidumbre experimental reportada por la base de datos de la DIPPR (Daubert, 1998). La DIPPR asigna los valores de incertidumbre para cada sustancia según el tipo de dato y la información proporcionada por los autores en sus trabajos originales como los métodos utilizados y la incertidumbre en la toma de los datos (Bloxham et al, 2020).…”
