About this dataset
Solubility measurements are compiled from experimental literature and the Handbook of Aqueous Solubility Data. Values are shown in both molar and mass concentration where available. Measurement temperature and source identifiers are retained to support comparison and traceability.
Evaluation criteria
Each record contains five component ratings. Higher component values indicate more complete reporting.
TTemperature reporting
PSolute purity
EEquilibration and agitation
MAnalysis method
