Chemical nomenclature is a set of rules to generate systematic names for chemical compounds. The nomenclature used most frequently in academia is the one created and developed by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). While there have been efforts to create one standardized internationally recognized system in chemical education various industries have not adopted IUPAC. Other systems used by various industries include the International Nomenclature Cosmetic Ingredient (INCI) system, and the American Chemical Society's CAS numbers. Various mixtures, fractions, grades, and dilutions based on raw material processing and industry needs has lead to internal company specific systems.
