About CHEMCASTS

Who We Are

Chem-casts is an engineering reference platform providing reliable chemical properties, thermodynamic data, and practical calculators for students, researchers, and professionals. Our goal is to make technical information easier to understand, easier to access, and more useful for everyday engineering work.

The platform is maintained by real engineers and built on verified scientific data, standard engineering correlations, and recognized industry practices.

What We Provide

1. Chemical Property Database

We host thousands of pure component property pages, including:

  • Vapor pressure
  • Density
  • Cp and enthalpy
  • Viscosity
  • Thermal conductivity
  • Critical properties

Each dataset includes structured information, reference formulas, and temperature/pressure-dependent profiles.

2. Engineering Calculators

Our calculators are designed to assist with routine engineering tasks such as:

  • Pure component property estimation
  • Mixture calculations
  • Temperature and pressure profile generation
  • Unit conversions

These tools help students and professionals cross-check results and understand engineering principles.

3. Learning Resources

Chem-casts includes clear, concise learning materials:

  • Articles on engineering fundamentals
  • Thermodynamics explanations
  • Property estimation guides
  • Flashcards for quick revision

All content is reviewed for correctness and educational value.

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide accurate, accessible, and trustworthy engineering information to help learners and professionals solve technical problems with confidence.

We prioritize:

  • Accuracy — using validated formulas and recognized engineering correlations
  • Transparency — clearly explaining how values are derived
  • Educational value — supporting students and professionals worldwide
  • User safety — avoiding hazardous advice or uncontrolled process guidance

Why Trust Chem-casts?

Built by an Experienced Chemical Engineer

Content and tools are created and reviewed by professionals with relevant domain knowledge.

Transparent and Verifiable Data Sources

We rely on widely accepted engineering equations, thermodynamic relationships, and scientific principles.

No Harmful or Misleading Content

We do not provide unsafe process instructions, shortcuts, or unverified industrial advice.

Clear Separation of Education vs. Industrial Decision-Making

Chem-casts supports learning but does not replace plant design standards, safety codes, or licensed engineering judgment.

Consistently Updated

New tools, data, and explanations are added regularly to improve reliability and coverage.
