(1) Choice of nomenclature is one of the most difficult tasks in
assembling any table of chemical data, especially one containing a variety
of hydrocarbons that have become widely known by non-scientific names. We
have generally used IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry)
nomenclature
as the primary name; synonyms in common use are also included — sometimes
these are shown as the primary name, depending on common usage. In a very
few cases, the IUPAC designation is quite technical, and not widely used
in industry,
and so has been left out of this table entirely. It is always best to reference
CAS (Chemical Abstracts Service) numbers to make sure the correct material
is being evaluated.

Parameters: A User's Handbook, 2nd Edition, Charles M. Hansen, CRC Press,
Boca Raton, FL, 2007, except as noted. The total solubility parameter is the
geometric mean of the three components dD (from non-polar, or dispersion
interactions), dP (from polar attraction), and dH (from
hydrogen bonding). This data is a combination of calculated values and experimentally
confirmed values; refer to the original source for detailed information, including
notes regarding the use of group contributions vs. dipole moments for polar
contribution calculations.
