What is ChemProp?
ChemProp License Expiration?
Please note, obsolete ChemProp versions always expire after a certain deadline. Updates will be provided in time, so if your ChemProp installation is expired already, please update from the same source as your original version.
Currently, versions up to 5.2.7 are expired already. ChemProp 5.2.8 will be expired after June 30, 2013.
New versions will be announced by a
News feed on ChemProp updates

License agreement download
The ChemProp OSIRIS edition and its successor versions are publicly available for free, based on bilateral license agreements. The license agreement can be downloaded here. It needs to be dated, signed, and stamped by an authorised person.
To simplify ChemProp licensing, licenses will normally not be granted to individual persons (even though this will be possible also), but to entire organisational units. Therefore, an annex to the license agreement defining the organisational unit is required in addition, with the same date, sign, and stamp, as the license agreement. Since the scope of the organisational unit requires our agreement, we strongly recommend to clarify this issue in advance, e.g. via email or phone.
Send both the agreement and the annex together by postal mail to
Helmholtz-Zentrum für Umweltforschung (UFZ)
Department Ökologische Chemie
Permoserstraße 15
04318 Leipzig, Germany
Please indicate "ChemProp license agreement" outside of the letter, and provide an email address to receive the access information.
