Summary

This easy-to-use reference provides accurate, up-to-date information on the hazardous properties of several hundred generic and specific polymeric additives used in elastomer and plastics processing operations - detailing the symptoms of overexposure as well as responsible packaging, shipping, and emergency-response procedures. Offering essential safety data, Hazardous Chemicals in the Polymer Industry presents the name(s), CAS registration number, chemical formula, Wisswesser line notation, and chemical class of each compound discussed, description of each chemical's physical properties, relevant regulations governing the processing and/or transport of specific compounds, suggestions for future, much-needed toxicological research, and more.

Hazardous Chemicals in the Polymer Industry is vital reading for all pollution control, chemical, health and safety, environmental, plastics, plant, and industrial engineers; regulatory health officials; occupational safety and health physicians; industrial hygienists; ecologists; analytical, polymer, physical, and industrial chemists; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
