Description for Designing Safer Polymers
Hardcover. The 1984 Toxic Substances Control Act contained a provision exempting certain polymers from regulations typically applied to new chemical substances. This work should aid chemical manufacturers and importers in determining whether the substance is a polymer as defined by the polymer exemption rule. Num Pages: 128 pages, illustrations. BIC Classification: PNNP; TDCP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 233 x 161 x 17. Weight in Grams: 352.
A guide to designing safer polymers based on the principles of green chemistry and the EPA's Polymer Exemption Rule
Green chemistry, the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances, is a powerful tool in designing safer polymers. By adhering to the principles of green chemistry, manufacturers can produce polymers that are better for the environment, and can do so in an economically sound manner.
The Polymer Exemption Rule delineates types of polymers that are expected to be of reduced risk. By following the guidelines ... Read more
