Open publisher page 2,006 citations

Abstract

Simple group-contribution methods are proposed to estimate eleven important physical properties of pure materials. A common set of structural groups was employed. High accuracy is not claimed, but the proposed methods are often as accurate as or more accurate than techniques in common use today.
