The NERD parameters are:

Molecule	$\sigma _{\mathrm {CH} _{3}}$	$\sigma _{\mathrm {CH} _{2}}$	$\epsilon _{\mathrm {CH} _{3}}$	$\epsilon _{\mathrm {CH} _{2}}$
ethane	3.825 $\mathrm {\AA}$	3.93 $\mathrm {\AA}$	100.6 K

Critical properties

The pressure, temperature and density at the critical point have been calculated for a virial equation of state using the TraPPE-UA force field, and are given in Table I of .

Virial coefficients

The virial coefficients $B_{2}$-$B_{6}$ as a function of temperature for the TraPPE force field have been tabulated by Schultz and Kofke .
