Reading Solvent Properties from the solvents_ds Dataset

Gathering the solvent properties from solvents_ds in order to filter out specific solvent and its corresponding properties (by the prop argument). See also vignette("datasets").

Usage

readEPR_solvent_props(solvent, prop = NULL)

Arguments

solvent

Character string, pointing to solvent name (or any string from the solvent name/abbreviation), such as solvent = "DMSO",solvent = "acetone", solvent = "xylene". If more than one rows/observations are being returned (e.g. in case of solvent = "xylene") => additional solvent specification must be provided e.g. solvent = "o-xylene".

prop

Character string related to a data frame variable/column/property e.g. "boiling", "formula", "dens", "dielectric"...etc (see also solvents_ds).

Value

Data frame with row/rows of selected solvent(s) and the corresponding properties. If a specific property is called like code = "melting" (\(\equiv\) melting point in °C), the function returns value/character.

## Properties of `DMSO`:
