Editorial and Introduction Editorial New procedures for articles reporting thermophysical properties Fluid Phase Equilibria, along with other journals in the field, established collaboration with the Thermodynamics Research Center (TRC) of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in 2009 for the purpose of ensuring the quality of published experimental data. In a joint statement [1], the editors of the five journals involved set out the rational for the cooperation in terms of helping to ensure that authors and reviewers were made aware of any previously-published literature values for the properties and systems in question. The process involved NIST 'capturing' the new experimental data, comparing it against existing values in the NIST data archive and providing a report that: (a) listed relevant literature sources; and (b) highlighted any obvious discrepancies in the new data. In order to streamline the process and to further enhance the quality of published articles, we are now introducing one change to the way in which the NIST cooperation is implemented. Effective in February 2013, responsibility for preparing a Literature Report will shift from NIST to the submitting authors. Submitting authors will be able to prepare their own Literature Report by using ThermoLit, a publicly available (http://trc.nist.gov/thermolit/) program. This will eliminate NIST's role in providing this report, and thus speed the review process and provide added benefit to authors who will have literature citation results on hand at a stage when they can do the most good. Please, note that use of ThermoLit is designed as an aid to the traditional required literature review and must not be used as a substitute. NIST will continue to provide a data evaluation at the end of the review process, immediately prior to final acceptance of the article. This data evaluation will compare the reported experimental data with that existing in the NIST Data Archive and highlight any unexpectedly large discrepancies, such as those arising from typographical errors. Though the data evaluation step has not changed, we will use this opportunity for a reminder that experimental results and their uncertainties must be tabulated in the way described in the Guide for Authors. A key feature is that tables be self-contained and include the uncertainties of all reported quantities (variables, constraints, and properties). In addition, we have incorporated new standards relating to the description of chemical samples and we encourage authors to present details of their samples in an easily-readable tabular form. To assist authors, a large number of example tables have been prepared by NIST and are available (http://trc.nist.gov/FPE-Support.html). The new procedures will provide literature citations to authors before submission of their manuscript and speed the review process. Indeed, authors are encouraged to use ThermoLit in advance of experiments to help minimize duplication of effort. In 2012, new IUPAC guidelines for the reporting of phase equilibrium measurements were published (Pure Appl. Chem. 2012, 84(8), 1785-1813), and the requirements of this journal are consistent with these recommendations. Prior to submission, authors are strongly encouraged to review a checklist based on these recommendations, which is available (http://trc.nist.gov/FPE-Support.html). We are certain that the new Literature Report tool and the procedures described here will further enhance the already high quality of articles published in Fluid Phase Equilibria.

Aims and Scope Fluid Phase Equilibria publishes high quality papers dealing with experimental, theoretical and applied research related to equilibrium and transport properties of fluid and solid phases. The fluid phase properties of interest include: AUTHOR INFORMATION PACK 20 Feb 2013 www.elsevier.com/locate/fluid 5 PVT, enthalpies, heat capacities, Joule-Thomson coefficients, Gibbs and Helmholtz energies, chemical potentials, activity and fugacity coefficients, critical properties, chemical equilibria, multiphase equilibria and interfacial properties, thermal conductivity, viscosity and rheological properties, and diffusion coefficients. A wide range of pure and mixed fluids may be considered: non-polar and polar small organic and inorganic molecules, ions, metals, polymers, surfactants, ionic liquids, gas hydrates, complex and biological molecules (e.g. proteins. Fluids should be well-characterized with respect to composition, or be specified with sufficient information for the experimental results to be reproduced (e.g., crude oils from a specific oil field, or mixtures that are obtained through a well-established published protocol). Papers only dealing with experimental data on viscosities and/or densities and/or speed of sound and/or refractive index and/or surface tension of liquids or liquid mixtures at atmospheric pressure and temperatures close to room temperature will be refused unless they are accompanied with new theory. Theoretical techniques may comprise: chemical thermodynamics, applied statistical mechanics, molecular physics, molecular simulation, quantum chemistry, applied mathematics.
