bis(phosphate) de trizinc : forme recommandée par l'Union internationale de chimie pure et appliquée (UICPA) pour le nom systématique correspondant au numéro CAS indiqué sur la présente fiche. 1, record 1, French, - bis%28phosphate%29%20de%20trizinc
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
L'adjectif basique est correctement utilisé en français pour désigner un sel basique qui peut formellement libérer un anion OH-. Il est fortement déconseillé de l'utiliser en français dans le cas d'un sel acide contenant un ou plusieurs cations H+; on doit donc éviter le nom «phosphate de zinc tribasique» qui est un anglicisme de mauvais aloi. 1, record 1, French, - bis%28phosphate%29%20de%20trizinc
