| Designed for chemical reaction and equilibria calculations, HSC Chemistry is the world's most popular thermochemical software. The name of the program is based on the feature that all fourteen calculation options automatically utilize the same extensive thermochemical database which contains enthalpy (H), entropy (S) and heat capacity (C) data for more than 15000 chemical compounds. |  | |||||
The current version contains the following calculation modules:

| The objective of HSC is to make conventional thermodynamic calculations fast and easy to carry out using personal computers. Therefore HSC has a wide range of application possibilities in scientific education, industry and research. Thermochemical calculations are useful, for example, when developing new chemical processes and improving old ones. HSC Chemistry is also a useful tool for universities and schools in chemical practicals and studies. Traditionally, thermodynamic calculations based on experimental or assessed data have utilized stability functions in various thermodynamic data books and papers in scientific journals. The difficult searching stage and complicated calculations, as well as inconsistencies arising from different selections of standard and reference states, have made this calculation procedure quite time-consuming. HSC Chemistry offers powerful calculation methods for studying the effects of different variables on the chemical system at equilibrium. For example, if the user gives the raw materials, amounts and other conditions of almost any chemical process, the program will give the amounts of the product as a result. HSC also makes heat and material balance calculations of different processes much more easily than any manual method. The Eh-pH-diagrams option of HSC also offers a very fast way of studying the dissolution and corrosion behavior of different materials. HSC Chemistry helps to avoid expensive trial-and-error chemistry, allowing the chemist or engineer to set up optimum reaction conditions for his experimental investigations. The payback time for HSC is extremely short, as even one useless laboratory experiment can cost more than a whole HSC package. For more details on HSC, visit Outokumpu. | ||||||
