triple_point_temperature
(CASRN, method='Any')[source]¶ Return a chemical’s triple point temperature. Lookup is based on CASRNs. Automatically select a data source to use if no Method is provided. Return None if the data is not available.
- Parameters
CASRN (string) – CASRN [-].
- Returns
Tt – Triple point temperature [K].
- Return type
float
- Other Parameters
Method (string, optional) – The method name to use. The only accepted method for now is ‘Staveley’. If method is “Any”, the first available value from these methods will returned. If method is “All”, a dictionary of method results will be returned.
Notes
Returns data from 1. Median difference between melting points and triple points is 0.02 K. Accordingly, this should be more than good enough for engineering applications.
Temperatures are on the ITS-68 scale.
Examples
Ammonia
>>> triple_point_temperature('7664-41-7') 195.47999999999999

triple_point_pressure
(CASRN, method='Any')[source]¶ Return a chemical’s triple point pressure. Lookup is based on CASRNs. Automatically select a data source to use if no Method is provided. Return None if the data is not available.
- Parameters
CASRN (string) – CASRN [-]
- Returns
Pt – Triple point pressure [Pa].
- Return type
float
- Other Parameters
Method (string, optional) – The method name to use. The only accepted method for now is ‘Staveley’. If method is “Any”, the first available value from these methods will returned. If method is “All”, a dictionary of method results will be returned.
Notes
Returns data from 1.
