The new edition of this bestseller reference is being offered, for the first time, as an electronic product. Scientists and engineers who work with chemicals spend an inordinate amount of time trying to identify a chemical's appropriate name, Chemical Abstract Service (CAS) Registry Number, and/or the structure. Often an individual will start out with a trade name that provides no insight into the chemical identity. With this Dictionary, these lookup tasks will cost nothing (other than the cost of this CD-ROM) and almost instantaneously allow you to find a majority of the chemicals that you need. Approximately, 25,000 chemicals with 150,000 synonyms were selected from the following sources: * U.S. Government's List of Lists * Hazardous Substance Data Bank * Toxic Substances Control Act  * Test Submissions (TSCATS) Database * Environmental Fate Databases Commercial chemicals are included as well. More than half of the discrete chemicals in this reference product have SMILES structural notations to further assist in identifying the compound. Product features include: Click and Go Contents Menus-- contents always tracks where you are; click on a topic and it instantly appears Full-Text Search-- words, phrases and queries; from simple to complex Keyword Index Browser-- browse through thousands of key word entries organized by major categories; search as you type feature Multi-Book Access--This title's information is seamlessly accessible from other Synapse Library titles.

The increase of environmental concerns and government regulations has spurred the chemical industry to innovation and reformulation of products that address a broad spectrum of human and environmental safety factors. This Handbook is designed to serve as a starting point and guideline in the decision-making process of chemical and material selection. Part ITrade Name Reference provides an alphabetical listing of trade names identifiable as green. Each entry includes the manufacturer's name; chemical/material description; its detailed functions and applications in all aspects of industry; physical properties, such as form, molecular weight, density, solubility, boiling point, cloud point, flash point, pH, freezing point, activity; toxicology, storage, precautions, etc. Part IIChemical Component Cross-Reference covers more than 1400 chemicals/materials that are contained in the trade name products profiled in Part I. Each entry is a detailed monograph profiling the chemical. These entries are followed by a listing of the trade name products that are either equivalent to the monograph entry or contain it as one or more of its ingredients. Part III Green Attribute Cross-Reference groups the trade name chemicals by one or more of 15 green chemical attributes: Biodegradable; Environmentally Safe Environmentally Friendly; Halogen-Free; HAP's-Free; Low Global Warming; Low Ozone-Depleting Nonozone-Depleting; Low Vapor Pressure; Noncarcinogenic; Non-CFC Non-HCFC; Nonhazardous; Nontoxic; Recyclable; SARA-Nonreportable; SNAP (Significant New Alternative Policy) Compliant; VOC-Compliant Low-VOC VOC-Free Part IVFunctional/Application Classification Index Part VManufacturers Directory

If you want to know: what fillers are safe to use in tablets and capsules for pharmaceuticals, what choice of fillers are available for tire applications, what extenders are suitable for paints and coatings, or what diluents to use in adhesives and sealants, use this comprehensive source of information. It describes more than 2000 trade names, chemicals, and materials that serve the primary function of lowering the overall cost of the end products to which they are added. These ingredients are often selected based on secondary, property-enhancing functions. In the paper industry they are used to improve brightness, increase opacity, and reduce porosity. In paints, often referred to as inerts, extenders, and supplemental pigments, they are used to increase color, hiding power, weatherability and control viscosity. Fillers in plastics and polymers impart impact strength, lubricity, electrical and thermal properties. Diluents, besides supplying bulk to detergents, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals, act to adjust dose or concentration.
