What We Do - IUPAC - International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) is the world authority on chemical nomenclature, terminology (including the naming of new elements in the periodic table), standardized methods for measurement, atomic weights and many other critically-evaluated data
Who We Are - International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) is the world authority on digital standards in chemistry; chemical nomenclature and terminology, including the naming of new elements in the periodic table; on standardized methods for measurement; and on atomic weights
Periodic Table of Elements - IUPAC | International Union of Pure and . . . By virtue of its work in relation with the chemical elements, IUPAC can dispense a periodic table that is up-to-date IUPAC involvement covers various aspects of the table and data that it unveils, and several reports and recommendations, some quite recent, attest of that input In particular, IUPAC is directly involved in the following:
Nomenclature - IUPAC - International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry IUPAC is the universally-recognized authority on chemical nomenclature and terminology and two IUPAC bodies take leading roles in this activity: Division VIII – Chemical Nomenclature and Structure Representation and the Interdivisional Committee on Terminology, Nomenclature, and Symbols
Brief Guides to Nomenclature - IUPAC | International Union of Pure and . . . The universal adoption of an agreed nomenclature is a key tool for efficient communication in the chemical sciences, in industry and for regulations associated with import export or health and safety IUPAC provides recommendations on many aspects of nomenclature
About IUPAC - International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry IUPAC is well known for publishing definitive and up-to-date data on atomic weights and isotopic abundances It also publishes a wide variety of other chemical data of immense value to chemists and chemical engineers
Our History - IUPAC - International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry IUPAC was formed in 1919 by chemists from industry and academia, who recognized the need for international standardization in chemistry The standardization of weights, measures, names and symbols is essential to the well being and continued success of the scientific enterprise and to the smooth development and growth of international trade and
The IUPAC Compendium of Chemical Terminology Welcome to the new interactive version of IUPAC Compendium of Chemical Terminology, informally known as the "Gold Book" On these pages you will find a new browsable, version of this publication Start by: browsing the alphabetical index (left), using one of the many thematic indexes (left),
Recommendations and Technical Reports - IUPAC | International Union of . . . IUPAC Recommendations are the output of IUPAC Projects or other studies on nomenclature, symbols, terminology, or conventions, and their purpose is to recommend unambiguous, uniform, and consistent nomenclature and terminology for specific scientific fields
