Provisional Recommendations Abstract: Materials chemistry is focused on the design, preparation and understanding of innovative materials with useful properties. It is an emerging area of research where definitions are not...
Provisional Recommendation Abstract: This recommendation proposes a definition for the term “pnictogen bond”: the term pnictogen bond designates a subset of the attractive interactions between an electrophilic region on a...
This provisional recommendation discusses the ways of linking physical objects to digital information relevant to chemical entities, specifically those that can be described by the use of the IUPAC International...
Chain polymerizations are defined as chain reactions where the propagation steps occur by reaction between monomer(s) and active site(s) on the polymer chains with regeneration of the active site(s) at...
This Glossary contains definitions, explanatory notes, and sources for terms used in physical organic chemistry. Its aim is to provide guidance on the terminology of physical organic chemistry, with a...
A number of human activities require that certain complex molecules, referred to as active species (drugs, dyes, peptides, proteins, genes, radioactive labels, etc.), be combined with substrates, often a macromolecule,...
Abstract: Henry’s law states that the abundance of a volatile solute dissolved in a liquid is proportional to its abundance in the gas phase. It applies at equilibrium and in...
These recommendations are specifically for polymers and polymer systems showing a significant response to an electromagnetic field or one of its components (electric field or magnetic field), i.e., for electromagnetic-field-responsive...
Between 1984 and 2012 IUPAC published several documents containing recommendations for the nomenclature of a wide variety of polymer types such as regular linear single-strand, irregular single-strand, organic regular double-strand,...
Metrology, being the science of measurement and its application, covers the experimental production and the use of quantity values in all disciplines of science and engineering, including chemistry and, not...
