PSDI Knowledge BaseThe PSDI Knowledge Base serves as a comprehensive resource for physical scientists and research support staff, offering guidance on a variety of themes related to research data, PSDI technologies and related resources. It also provides centralized access to a variety of training and learning, including self-paced courses, tutorials, webinar recordings, and in-person sessions such as workshops and summer schools. Additionally, the Knowledge Base offers technical support resources, including FAQs to address common challenges, guidance on how to contact us, and how to raise a support request if you can't find an answer to your question.

Catalysis Data Infrastructure (CDI) DatabaseThe database model for the CDI underpins the knowledge graph of a research community, linking research products (publications, data) and entities (researchers, institutions). It enables data discovery, showcases collaborations, and provides insights into research output. While centred on Published Works, Researchers, Institutions, Research Themes, and Data Objects, it can be extended to support domain-specific data (e.g., chemical entities, materials, analysis methods) tailored to the needs of different communities.

Chemical Availability Search (ChASe)The Chemical Availability Search helps researchers find and compare chemicals from various suppliers for their projects. It saves time and resources by identifying readily available compounds, budget-friendly options, or alternatives. Users can search by drawing a molecule or entering a compound name through the PSDI Cross Data Search service. The tool provides details for over 250,000 chemicals from UK suppliers, including product name, supplier, country, quantity, price, unit price, catalogue number, and a link to the supplier's website. Disclaimer - this data source relies on chemical supplier data, and PSDI is not responsible for its accuracy.
