Estimate raw material cost per kg

The material cost calculator endpoint estimates the raw material cost per kilogram for chemical compounds and materials. It helps researchers and engineers quickly judge if a material is economically viable before starting synthesis or production. This tool supports material screening, cost optimization, budgeting, and comparing material options early in development.
