Downloads

You can download the latest version of CHEAQS Next (0.2.1.8) by clicking here. If you want to check the integrity of the download, you can use the CRC32 (40317EBD) and/or CRC64 (DAE6CE0E609C00AE). Features of this version:

Includes the Mean Spherical Approximation model
Temperature correction
Built-in charge balance correction
Fully functional print preview
Improved calculation speed
View output sets side by side
Downloading and viewing the manual and database document from within the program
Unicode
Built-in support for different languages

As mentioned above, when you run the program, you can download and display the manual and the database document. If you prefer, you can:

download the manual by clicking here (written for version 0.1.0.19, still valid for 0.2.1.8);
click here to download the database document for version 0.2.1.8.

In some cases you may prefer the older version, for example:

if your computer does not support 64-bits executables;
if you want to run titrations;
if you want to change the database.

The latter two options will be implemented soon in the new version. You can download the older version here (CRC32: 5D6E0E8E; CRC64: 9C25D5C251369470), the manual here and the database document here.

I recommend not to download CHEAQS from other sites. Only downloading CHEAQS from here guarantees a secure and up-to-date download. Also, I recommend not to use any other uninstallers than the one included with CHEAQS Next. Their 'solution' is usually worse than the supposed problem.
