Nomenclature systems industrial system

Some of the rigidly systematic names selected by the Association for Science Education for their nomenclature list in 1985 from the IUPAC possibilities, and some of the systematic indexing names used by Chemical Abstracts since 1972, are given as synonyms in the Index of Chemical Names (Appendix 4). This should assist those coming into industry and research with a command of those nomenclature systems but who may be unfamiliar with the current variety of names used for chemicals. The inclusion where possible of the CAS Registry Number for each title compound should now simplify the clarification of any chemical name or synonym problems, by reference to the Registry Handbook or other CAS source. 

A variety of controlled vocabiilary codes can be used in some sources for more precise search results. Examples include the North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS), healthcare common procediire coding system (HCPCS), current procediiral terminology (CPT), Universal Medical Device Nomenclature System (UMDNS), and the International Classification of Disease (ICD). However, it is not always easy to determine which information soimce uses which code, if any, and which procedure or disease state the codes cover. 

Basic organic compounds can be addressed using a simple nomenclature system (SNS). In particular, for basic industrial chemicals standardized abbreviations can be established. In certain cases, these abbreviations are still shorter than the molecular formula.

Copolymers have gained considerable importance both in scientific research and in industrial applications. A consistent and clearly defined system for naming these polymers would, therefore, be of great utility. The nomenclature proposals presented here are intended to serve this purpose by setting forth a system for designating the types of monomeric-unit sequence arrangements in copolymer molecules.

Many chemical and petroleum companies are now using Process Industry Practices (PIP) criteria for the development of P IDs. These criteria include symbols and nomenclature for typical equipment, instrumentation, and piping. They are compatible with industry codes of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), Instrument Society of America (ISA), and Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers Association (TEMA). The PIP criteria can be applied irrespective of whatever Computer Assisted Design (CAD) system is used to develop P IDs. Process Industries Practice (1998) may be obtained from the Construction Industry Institute mentioned in the References. 

There is no single definition of the chemical industry or a universal categorization of the industry s subsectors. There are, in fact, numerous ways of identifying subsectors of the chemical industry, including, according to the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes (US OMB, 1987), the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) (US OMB, 2000), the European Union NACE Codes for the nomenclature of economic activities,1 the Japanese standard industrial classification,2 and according to S P definitions (S P, 2004), to name a few. 

Consensus on nomenclature had been reached by the 1890s. Aniline was the parent of its derivatives, though sulfonic acids were considered derivatives of benzene, such as aminobenzenesulfonic acid. The prefix amino- was added to naphthalene and its derivatives. Many trivial names came into use, particularly for aminonaphthalenesulfonic acids, found in both academic and industrial research laboratories. Though IUPAC convention now numbers amino aryl compounds according to the parent hydrocarbon, the earlier system of numbering has often been retained, since some names include the positions of substituents at carbon atoms numbered according to the older systems.
