Suffixes hyphenation

Finally, the number of cells in series is given by a prefix, and the number of cells (or series groups) in parallel by a hyphenated suffix. 

Hyphenate suffixes to proper nouns, and retain the capital letter. 

A hyphenated suffix number, following the basic chain number, indicates the number of strands in a multiple-strand chain. For example (see Table 2-1), 60-2 designates two strands of a number 60 chain in parallel having common pins, 60-3 designates a triple strand, 60-4 a quadruple strand, and so on. And the number 80H-2 designates two strands of a number 80, heavy series chain. 

Numerical prefixes (placed before a name, but joined to it by a hyphen), infixes (inserted into a name, usually between hyphens) and suffixes (placed after a name). 

Assemble the name as a single word in the following order number, group, root, and suffix. Note that a hyphen is used to separate numbers from the name. 

Use the formula prefix + root + suffix to put the name together. The full name of this compound is 2-ethyl-1-butene. Remember that a hyphen is placed between numbers and letters, and commas are placed between consecutive numbers. 

Most suffixes are not hyphenated. Do not hyphenate the following suffixes when added to words that are not proper nouns. 

Hyphenate the suffixes like and wide when they are added to words of three or more syllables. 

Hyphenate the suffix like in two-word compounds used as unit modifiers. 

Do not use hyphens to separate the syllables of a chemical name unless the name is too long to fit on one line. Appendix 12-1 is a list of prefixes, suffixes, roots, and some complete words hyphenated as they would be at the end of a line. 

The suffix like . Hyphenate the suffix like to words of three or more syllables, to two-word compounds used as unit modifiers, to chemical names, and to proper nouns and adjectives. 

Note ZD suffixed by 1, 2, 3 and 4 represent zeolite doses e.g. 0.6, 1.0, 1.66 and 5.0 gA, respectively. A number after hyphen indicates the interaction time in hours...
