With this topic becoming increasingly important to a wide range of applications in several major scientific disciplines, Handbook of Acid-Base Indicators provides up-to-date, comprehensive information on over 300 water-based and solvent-based indicators. Each listing presents chemical name?, chemical abstract index name, CAS registry number, Merck index number, chemical structure, molecular formula and weight, pH range, chemical/dye class, color change at pH, pKa, physical form, solubility, melting and boiling points, UV-visible spectrum, synthesis, and major applications. This complete source also contains references on safety for each indicator included in the text. While acid-base indicators continue to find new applications in an ever-widening range of scientific disciplines, there is no current book that focuses entirely on the subject, nor one that brings together the relevant advances that have evolved over the last three decades. The Handbook of Acid-Base Indicators compiles the most up-to-date, comprehensive information on over 200 water-based and solvent-based indicators into a single source. Organized alphabetically, entries include: common name, other names, CA index name, CAS registry number, Merck index number, chemical structure, chemical/dye class, molecular formula, molecular weight, pH range, color change at pH, pKa, physical form, solubility, UV-visible (Lambda-max), melting point, and boiling point. This resource also offers unique coverage including protocols for synthesizing indicator compounds; data relating to adverse effects, toxicity, and safety; and major applications for each indicator. The Handbook of Acid-Base Indicators contains practical information for widespread applications that include semiconductors, displays, nanotechnology, OLEDs, fuel cells, sensors, security, surface coatings, adhesives, insecticides, agricultural chemicals, textiles, packaging, cosmetics, personal care products, pharmaceuticals, and the detection and treatment of disease.--BOOK JACKET.
