LICENSING
LICENSING
The ICDD database and software products are licensed for use on a single PC. Database
and software licenses grant end users a limited, nonexclusive and nontransferable license
to access the contents of the product for personal or internal business purposes; and to
download such contents on the hard drive of a single computer, as needed, to facilitate
data processing. It cannot be installed, accessed or displayed on more than one PC without
purchasing additional licenses. It is expressly prohibited to access the database over a
network, or access the database using desktop sharing or screen sharing software. License
terms vary by product. Please see page 9 in this catalog for information on WebPDF-4+
licensing.
The initial term of the license for PDF-2 and SIeve is five (5) years from the license
registration key date. At the end of your five (5) year license term, you will have two options
for your license. Option 1: Purchase a license for the current release of the PDF-2, SIeve,
or PDF-4+. Option 2: Extend your original license for one additional five (5) year term, free
of charge, provided that the licensed user has the same organization name and address
(i.e., the registered user), and the product license has not been previously renewed or
converted to a PDF-4+ product.
All PDF-4 products are licensed for one (1) year. ICDD offers a subscription service that

Academic Pricing Policy
Site License Renewals
An academic price is awarded to degree-granting (Assoc., B.S.,
M.S., Ph.D.) institutions. The name of the institution must appear
on the degree in order to qualify for the academic pricing.
Institutions may be required to submit documentation to verify
eligibility. Please consult ICDD’s price list for eligible products.
In order to take advantage of the site license renewal pricing,
both the Master License, and the Secondary Licenses of the
database must be renewed yearly. To renew a site license, ICDD
requires that the Master License and all Secondary Licenses, be
purchased concurrently on a single purchase order.
Site License Policy†
Adding Licenses to a Site
ICDD’s Site License Policy is designed for a multiuser laboratory
to facilitate multiple licenses of the PDF-2 or PDF-4 databases at
a single site. A single site is defined by the building where the
database will be installed. Multiple users in different buildings
need to purchase separate site licenses for each building.
In order to add additional licenses to an established site, all
database licenses in the site must be updated to the current
release.
Combo Site License Subscription
A site license includes the purchase of a Master License, plus the
purchase of Secondary Licenses (discounted additional licenses).
Site licenses are no longer limited to 10 database licenses. The
site is still determined by a building; however, customers can
now purchase an unlimited number of additional licenses at
discounted pricing. The number of licenses is determined by the
number of computers that will be running the database. ICDD
requires that the Master License and all Secondary Licenses be
purchased concurrently on a single purchase order. ICDD does
not offer licensing for local servers or networks.
ICDD offers a combination site license that allows for multiple
licenses of the PDF-2 or PDF-4 databases† at a single site. The
combo site license is serviced by subscription with yearly automatic renewals based on the anniversary of the original invoice
date for the PDF-2 or PDF-4 databases†. ICDD will automatically
bill and ship renewal licensed products as specified in ICDD’s then
current price list.
Multiyear Site License
In response to customer requests, ICDD offers multiyear site
licenses. The multiyear site license is offered as a convenience to
our customers using site license pricing. This license is serviced
by subscription and is available for a PDF-2 site, a PDF-4+ site,
a WebPDF-4+ site, a combo PDF-2/PDF-4+/WebPDF-4+ site, or a
PDF-4/Organics site.
†PDF-4/Minerals is not eligible for site licensing. Site and multiyear site licenses
for PDF-4/Organics cannot be combined with other PDF databases.

LICENSING
Multiyear License Policy
To assist customers with their yearly renewals, ICDD offers multiyear licenses that allow you to prepay for future renewals. The
multiyear license renewal pricing provides savings on yearly
license renewals, along with fixed pricing on the renewal for the
purchased license term. Multiyear pricing is available for PDF-2,
PDF-4+, WebPDF-4+, and PDF-4/Organics. If the price for these
products increases during your multiyear license period, you will
not be billed the difference.
Multiyear license renewal pricing for PDF-4/Minerals, SIeve, and
SIeve+ is offered as a convenience to our customers. It is not
subject to the discount offered with our other multiyear licenses.
Please contact ICDD for further information.
To purchase a multiyear license, users need to purchase the current release of the PDF new, or renew their license to the present release using the current prices. Users may then purchase
additional years for their license. All shipping charges will be
billed on the original invoice. The multiyear license is serviced
by subscription with yearly automatic renewals based on the
anniversary of the original invoice date for both the PDF-2 and
PDF-4 databases. For each year in your multiyear license, you
will receive the newest release of your PDF product. You will
need to install and register your new product for each release.
Since ICDD’s search-indexing software (SIeve and SIeve+) is linked
to the PDF-2 and PDF-4 release year, customers utilizing this
software are encouraged to purchase a multiyear license for the
software along with their multiyear license for the database. The
multiyear license for SIeve and SIeve+ is serviced by subscription
as described in the paragraph above.
Installation & Registration
ICDD databases require registration to comply with the legal
requirements of our collaborative agreements. When renewing
your PDF license, ICDD recommends that you contact ICDD or
your software vendor to determine your data analysis software
requirements.
ICDD products (PDF-2, PDF-4+, PDF-4/Minerals, PDF-4/Organics,
SIeve and SIeve+) are automatically activated for a temporary
license period (30 days) with the initial installation. Users are
required to register their database and/or software in order
to obtain a full license from ICDD to extend beyond 30 days.
The integrated registration software will guide users through
the registration process. The registration information may then
be sent to ICDD by the web (preferred), email, fax or mail.

elemental composition allows elemental data and functional group information to
be used in a material search and identification. Standardization and classification
are performed by ICDD editors and data suppliers who review, edit and standardize the world literature. Physical
properties such as color, melting point and density can be used in a search and identification process through
the data mining software embedded in all PDF databases.
Identify Materials
The above combinations allow our users to identify
the correct materials in the shortest possible time,
while greatly reducing false positives. This is what
distinguishes the PDF from all other databases.
I/Ic values have been calculated for hundreds of
thousands of materials enabling semi-quantitative
analysis by the Reference Intensity Ratio (RIR)
method. This method is used and applied in the
plug-in programs, SIeve and SIeve+. These values
are also used by global commercial data analysis
programs to perform RIR calculations. In fact,
almost all major commercial software programs
use this feature.
An excellent example of the power of using multiple data sources is given in the PDF-4/Organics
Technical Bulletin for the formulation analysis
of Lipitor, where reference data from powder
patterns, crystal structures, a nanomaterial, and
a patent combine in a multiphase analysis.
PDF-4 products contain atomic coordinates and

THE PDF DATABASES
New Content
Top selling pharmaceuticals added to the database
The crystal structures and powder patterns of a surprising number of the largest dollar volume
commercial pharmaceuticals are unpublished; and the structures for many other pharmaceuticals
have only been determined at low temperatures. To provide high-quality reference data for the
Powder Diffraction File database, synchrotron powder diffraction patterns have been collected on
many materials at ambient conditions. Thirty of the top 200 drugs were added to the database and
an additional 54 generic drugs were added via ICDD’s targeted acquisition programs in 2014. These
data include crystalline pharmaceuticals with structure determinations, as well as characteristic
scattering patterns of many commercial amorphous pharmaceuticals.
Figure 1.
Crystalline and non-crystalline polymers
Polymers often can pose a challenge for XRD investigations. Variations in macromolecule chain length,
the occurrence of chain branching, and processing conditions often result in polymer materials
that can be amorphous, semi crystalline, highly crystalline, randomly oriented, or preferentially
oriented. Inclusion of raw data XRD patterns for polymers in the PDF database, starting in Release
2009, provides a more complete picture to help identify crystalline and amorphous components of a
polymer XRD pattern. The original discussion of including full pattern polymer data in the PDF began
with an ICDD members’ task group, and is now a reality with 146 polymer raw data XRD patterns in
the PDF, focusing on high volume commercial polymers. This includes 29 new patterns added to the
2014 product release. Overall, the polymer subfile in PDF-4+ Release 2014 contains 1,282 entries.

New Capabilities
Search and identify neutron diffraction data and quantitate by RIR
Neutron powder diffraction is a useful tool because elemental scattering contrast is quite different
when compared to X-rays. We have calculated neutron scattering patterns for 241,561 entries in the
PDF-4+ 2014 product. We have implemented search/match methods using Hanawalt, Fink, and Long8
methods for phase identification, and built dedicated tables in the PDF-4+ 2014 to accommodate
these search/match methods. I/Ic values specific to neutron diffraction have also been calculated.
New display fields specific to neutron diffraction indexes can now be searched and displayed.

Bragg Institute, ANSTO. The analysis was
performed using PDF-4+ and SIeve+.
Modulated structures: More entries plus new molecular graphics that
visualizes various modulations
Through strategic partnerships, ICDD has developed leading edge technology for the analysis and
standardization of modulated structures. In Release 2014, the modulated structure subfile has seen
a substantial entry increase and a new graphics package has been added allowing modulations to be
visualized.
Nanomaterials
Tools for the analysis of nanomaterials have been developed over a period of many years. These tools
are part of the embedded software in PDF-4 products. The tools include a crystallite size simulator,
orientation function, display and data processing functions, and similarity index that can be used to
match experimental and simulated data. By incorporating these tools into the simulation software, we
can also use the tools for conventional and synchrotron X-ray, neutron, and electron diffraction data.

In Release 2014, we have added several experimental nano-sized reference materials. The references,
with their experimental patterns, demonstrate the ability of powder diffraction to detect extremely
small crystalline domains.

PDF-4 PRODUCTS
PDF-4+ 2014
PDF-4+ 2014 contains 354,264 entries from both the PDF-2
and our collaboration with MPDS. It combines the world’s
largest sources of inorganic diffraction data from crystals and
powders into a single database. The result is a comprehensive collection
of inorganic materials, produced in a standardized format that can be
rapidly searched for unknown phase identification. Extensive data
mining is facilitated with our 115 display fields coupled with 63 searches.
PDF-4+ is designed to support automated quantitative analyses by providing key
reference data required for these analyses. It also contains an array of tools that
supplement conventional analyses, such as a full suite of data simulation programs
enabling the analysis of neutron, electron, or synchrotron data, in addition to
conventional X-ray data. PDF-4+ features digitized patterns, molecular graphics,
and atomic coordinates. These features have been incorporated into PDF-4+ to
enhance the ability to do quantitative analysis using third party software by any of
three methods: Rietveld Analysis, Reference Intensity Ratio (RIR) Method or Total
Pattern Analysis.
Last year, the ICDD added modulated entries with atomic coordinates. This year,
we have added more entries, plus new molecular graphics that visualize various
modulations. These entries are part of the new data source, designated ‘05’, which
contains crystal structures abstracted and quality checked by ICDD.

WebPDF-4+ 2014
Data When and Where You Work
WebPDF-4+ provides portability to the PDF-4+ database via the internet.
It enables access to the entire suite of programs and data files,
so that it is equivalent to PDF-4+ 2014. WebPDF-4+ can be used
on any computer that meets the specifications and has access to a highspeed internet connection (see Table 3). WebPDF-4+ is delivered as a USB
compatible dongle, which supplies an access key to PDF-4+. There is no need
to work with a CD or DVD. The dongle is programmable, so that installation
and renewals are handled via the internet.
WebPDF-4+ requires that you have access to a high-speed internet connection. Your
organization/site must permit TCP/IP communication ports to be opened through any
firewalls. Currently, WebPDF-4+ is compatible with the majority of third party software
packages, especially software versions produced in recent years. You will need to check with
your third party software vendor to ensure that their software can interface to WebPDF-4+.
PDF-4+ is a large database with a complex database structure. Capability and speed can be
severely compromised if you are not accessing a high-speed internet connection.
How is WebPDF-4+ priced?
WebPDF-4+ is priced identically to PDF-4+. WebPDF-4+ can be used with site licenses or
multiyear licenses. Users can also convert their PDF-4+ or PDF-2 license to WebPDF-4+ using
our conversion pricing.
How is WebPDF-4+ licensed?
WebPDF-4+ is licensed for 12 months. Yearly renewals are required.
How do I register my license for WebPDF-4+?
The dongle must be registered at the licensee’s main address or “home base”. In other words,
the registration must be completed at the end user’s organization. Registration must also be
in accordance with the end user information (name of end user, organization, address) that
was received at ICDD for the initial license purchase.
How will my license renewal be handled the following year?
All PDF-4 products are handled through an automatic subscription service. ICDD will bill you
for the new release of your WebPDF-4+ product based on the anniversary of your original
invoice date for the license. For instance, if you purchased your initial license for WebPDF-4+
2013 in September 2013, ICDD will bill you for WebPDF-4+ 2014 in September 2014.
Your license renewal and registration will be handled via the internet, similar to your initial
registration. You will be required to download new software, and register your product with
each new release of the WebPDF-4+.

HIGHLIGHTS
41,423 minerals and related
materials
19,173 minerals with unique empirical
formula

Experimental digital patterns for select
noncrystalline and semicrystalline clays
A subset of PDF-4+, which includes all of
the features incorporated into PDF-4+
Quiruvilca Mine, Santiago de Chueo, Peru
PDF-4/Minerals is the most comprehensive collection of mineral
data in the world! Ninety-seven percent of all known mineral
types, as defined by the International Mineralogical Association
(IMA), are represented in the database, as well as many unclassified
minerals. There is a very wide selection of chemical variants within
mineral species as shown by the 19,173 unique empirical formulas
in the collection. Our database demonstrates the benefit of having
combined data from several different databases.
Due to focused editorial efforts in bibliographic searching, editorial review, and
classification, the mineral collection has more than doubled from 17,826 entries in
release 2005 to 41,423 entries in release 2014. All data are statistically analyzed,
then peer-reviewed by an editorial task group of ICDD scientist members, who are
also mineralogists. Minerals are classified by IMA designations of family, class and
subclasses, Pearson symbols, and prototype structures. All mineralogical zeolites are
similarly classified using International Zeolite Association guidelines.
The depth and breadth of mineralogy can be explored in PDF-4/Minerals using our
embedded data mining software. PDF-4/Minerals has all the software capabilities
of the larger PDF-4+ database with the large array of searches and display fields
as shown in Table 1. New for 2014 is the ability to display both mineral and zeolite
classifications in any Search Results table. Data mining tools enable identification
of complex multiphase soil compositions and analysis of geologically-characteristic
chemical variations within the mineral family.

PDF-4/Organics database is a highly targeted collection, with special focus
on materials used in commercial and regulatory fields. It is designed to
solve difficult problems that are analyzed by powder diffraction analysis
for a multitude of applications in the pharmaceutical, regulatory, specialty chemical,
biomaterials, and forensic fields. The PDF-4/Organics provides the best of both
worlds by including single crystal and powder diffraction data together in a single,
edited, and standardized database. We not only extract from the public literature
like other databases, we add unique content by extracting patent data, combining
single crystal and powder references, adding common inorganics and polymers,
and continuously adding targeted materials through grants and research proposals.
PDF-4/Organics incorporates virtually all of the features and capabilities described
for PDF-4+ (pages 14-15).

The combination of single crystal and powder
reference data provides the user with the ability
to analyze both crystalline and non-crystalline
solid state materials. These enable users to
quantitate, measure crystallinity, and determine
crystallite sizes. For better quantitative results,
PDF-4/Organics includes digital patterns, I/Ic,
atomic coordinates, and indexed unit cells to
enable a very wide range of quantitative analysis
techniques. PDF-4/Organics includes embedded
software for scaling and adding patterns, as
well as an “intelligent” RIR calculation for semiquantitative analysis.
To help users in various fields, materials are
classified into a total of 32 subfiles. Four major
subfiles are based on chemistry, and 28 smaller
subfiles focus on commercial applications.

sources provide
extensive coverage of
critical materials for
many of the subfiles.
The subfiles direct searches, and eliminate false
positives, improving identification efficiency
independent of the search/match program that
may be used. PDF-4/Organics 2015 contains
melting point data, color designations, molecular
weights and densities. These physical properties
can be data mined and combined with the user’s
diffraction data for improved phase identification.
When it comes to materials, our database
has guidelines, not rules. The ICDD includes
ALL materials that help to do an analysis. In
addition to excipients, PDF-4/Organics includes
common inorganic salts and corrosion products
for enhanced identification of crystalline,
nanocrystalline and amorphous materials.

identification of the formulation
of Lipitor uses references from a
single crystal determination, an
experimental powder pattern
of cellulose Iβ, a calculated
powder pattern and pattern
extracted from the patent
literature. The identification
required an inorganic excipient,
polymer excipient and two
organic compounds. A variety of
reference materials and sources
enabled the identification.

SIeve/SIeve+ 2014
Search and Identify
ICDD’s search indexing programs, SIeve for PDF-2 and SIeve+ for PDF-4,
are designed to search and identify unknown materials. SIeve and
SIeve+ are integrated into the ICDD databases to allow the use of the
extensive data mining interfaces, searches, and sorts available to improve
accuracy and precision of the identification process. For example, users
can utilize the extensive permutable searches in each database, then
define their own search subfile or use any of the “application or expertdefined” subfiles and subclasses to increase the accuracy of their phase
identification. In many cases, this provides a unique capability to analyze
the most difficult problems.
SIeve and SIeve+ offer a variety of
algorithms and options that allow users to
optimize results for particular chemistries
and both standard and non-standard
diffraction systems. SIeve and SIeve+
features automatic rotation of the eight
strongest lines (Hanawalt) or the eight
longest of the strongest lines (Fink) or
the eight longest lines (Long8) to look for
entries that exhibit the best Goodness of
Match (GOM). In the last few years, new
algorithms have been added to identify
non-crystalline materials and complex
multi-phase specimens. Most of the
algorithms were developed and optimized
for a particular type of analysis and the
selection options provide the user with
a wide breadth of analytical capability.
Since the fundamental algorithms used by
SIeve/SIeve+ are different than those used
by most commercial software programs,
they can be strongly complimentary. This
complimentary nature demonstrates the
strength of SIeve/SIeve+ in the analysis
of minor and trace phases where the
full filtering capability of the PDF-2 and
PDF-4 databases can be applied. Try SIeve
or SIeve+ for a free 30-day trial after you
install your database and discover its
phase identification capability. At the end
of the 30-day trial period, contact ICDD or
your vendor for a license.

specialized workshop. Attendees have the option of taking the threeday basic workshop, the two-day advanced workshop or both together
for a full week of hands-on training. Participants must take, or have
taken in the past, ICDD’s basic Rietveld workshop as a prerequisite
for attending the advanced workshop. This workshop introduces the
theory and formalisms of various indexing methods and structural
refinement techniques. One unique aspect of this workshop is the
extensive use of computer laboratory problem solving exercises that
teach method development in a hands-on environment.
