Handbook Of Paint And Coating Raw Materials Chemical Products With Trade Name Cross Reference

This reference work describes more than 10,000 trade name and generic chemical ingredients that are used in the formulation of paint and coating products for industry and commerce. Extensive information is drawn from more than 600 manufacturers, distributors, trade and research journals.

This reference, in its second edition, contains more than 7,500 polymeric material terms, including the names of chemicals, processes, formulae, and analytical methods that are used frequently in the polymer and engineering fields. In view of the evolving partnership between physical and life sciences, this title includes an appendix of biochemical and microbiological terms (thus offering previously unpublished material, distinct from all competitors.) Each succinct entry offers a broadly accessible definition as well as cross-references to related terms. Where appropriate to enhance clarity further, the volume's definitions may also offer equations, chemical structures, and other figures. The new interactive software facilitates easy access to a large database of chemical structures (2D/3D-view), audio files for pronunciation, polymer science equations and many more.

This book describes nearly 4000 raw materials. Data represent selections from manufacturers' descriptions.
