Plasticizers Databook

Plasticizer Databook contains data on selection of the most important plasticizers in use today. The selection includes 375 generic and commercial plasticizers. The generic plasticizers contain data for particular chemical compound from numerous sources and these generic plasticizer tables usually contain the most extensive information. The commercial plasticizers include only data given by plasticizer manufacturers. This allows comparison of properties of commercial plasticizers coming from different sources. The databook was developed to contain data required in plasticizers application. Attempts have been made to include plasticizers used in various sectors of industry to provide information for all users and to help in finding new solutions. Plasticizers included in the book differ from solvents by boiling point, which is above 250oC, but some plasticizers are used as temporary plasticizers or are expected to react with other components of mixture. These substances will not meet the boiling temperature criterion but will still be included since they play role of plasticizers. Based on the biggest plasticizer database ever published. Includes 375 generic and commercial plasticizers. Divided into sections for ease of use.

Databook of Plasticizers, Second Edition, contains data on the most important plasticizers in use today, including over 375 generic and commercial plasticizers.

This invaluable reference book constitutes the most comprehensive industrial database for India. Containing more than 700 tables with more than 100,000 data entries, CIER's Industrial Databook, 1998 provides a total statistical profile of the Indian manufacturing sector in its diverse manifestations-its retrospective and continuing context, its growth dynamics and its operative nuances. An important feature is its delineation of industrial statistics on an integrated basis that yields an aggregate profile of India's industrial economy. Divided into 26 sections, the Databook covers practically all industries, including food processing, fibers and textiles, rubber and plastics, chemicals, drugs and pharmaceuticals, engineering products, automobiles, and electronics. It provides data on capacity, production levels, inputs and supplies, imports and exports, cost components, infrastructure, developmental and financial institutions, investments, stock markets, and international trade. CIER's Industrial Databook, 1998 provides a wealth of quantitative information on Indian industry in a consolidated and consistent manner. CIER's Industrial Databook, 1998 will be of interest to researchers and professionals interested in industrial economics, banking, financial management, capital market, planners, and development research.

The migration of substances from packaging to food is a matter of concern for the food safety authorities, and packaging materials constitute a potential source of contaminants to which the consumer will be exposed to through their diet. A huge variety of substances can be present in packaging materials, which could consequently migrate into food and represent a risk to consumer health. Food Contamination by Packaging provides an overview of the main packaging contaminants including Bisphenol A, melamine, phthalates, alternative plasticisers, photoinitiators, perfluorochemicals, saturated and aromatic hydrocarbons (mineral oil saturated hydrocarbons and mineral oil aromatic hydrocarbons) from mineral oils, other bisphenol-related compounds, nanoparticles, primary aromatic amines and nonintentionally added substances. The analytical techniques used for their determination are reviewed. This book will be of interest to students and researchers in universities and research institutions associated with food packaging and, in general, to the food safety sector.

Databook of Flame Retardants contains information on commonly-used additives broken out into five sections, including General, Physical, Health and Safety, Ecological, and Use. Over one hundred types of data are included for over three hundred and fifty commercial-based products. All data fields are defined and include a broad range of information, such as calcium contents, molecular mass, brightness, freezing/melting points, viscosity, volatility, UN/NA class, autoignition temperature, partition coefficient, processing methods, concentrations used, and more. This book is best utilized in tandem with the Handbook of Flame Retardants. Each book complements the other without repeating information, with the other release explaining the role of these products, their selection, mechanism of action, use in different polymers and products, and health and commercial issues related to flame retardants. Provides key physical, health and safety, ecological, and application data for over 350 commonly-used fire retardant additives Covers halogenated, inorganic, phosphorus, intumescent, and nitrogen-based fire retardants Data listed includes CAS #, chemical class and name, decomposition temperature, electrical conductivity, IMDG class, biodegradation probability, product and resin recommendations, guidelines for use, and more
