Handbook of Green Chemicals - Tapa dura

The Handbook of Green Chemicals, now in its second edition, continues to be an important source of information for those involved in all aspects of the Chemical industry. It addresses the need of industrial formulators and those concerned with safety issues to know which chemicals, as either trade names or generic, can satisfy function and application demands while meeting specific environmental and human safety requirements. Defining Green Chemicals is difficult and arbitrary because the concept of Greenness encompasses the variety of factors: perception, empirical values, geographical area of use, the application for which they are used, available alternatives, and a knowledge of the total manufacturing process. The book is divided into five parts and includes three different appendixes: Part 1. Trade Name Reference Part 2. Chemical Components Cross-Reference Part 3. Green Attribute Cross-Reference Part 4. Functional / Application Classificational Index Part 5. Manufacturers Directory Appendix 1. CAS Number Index Appendix 2. EINECS / ELINCS Number Index Appendix 3. Glossary
