After locating the chemical, full chemical monographs of the chemical entry will be displayed including: CAS NUMBERS; EINECS/ELINCS numbers; FEMA numbers; UN numbers; Classification; Definition; Chemical synonyms; Trade names; Synonyms; Empirical formula; Molecular formula; Properties; Storage ; Toxicology; Precautions; Hazardous decomp. Products; NFPA ratings; Regulatory data; Uses; Use level; Manufacturers/; Distributors; Trade names equivalent to the chemical entry and trade names containing the chemical entry (trade name chemical blends).

A reference that allows users to locate tradename equivalents of generic chemicals, containing some 40,000 up-to-date international tradenames by which some 6,000 generic chemicals are known and marketed worldwide. Volume 1 contains alphabetical entries of industrial chemicals including synonyms, CAS number, definition, classification, formula, properties, precautions, toxicity data, and applications. Volume 2 lists all tradename products alphabetically followed by their manufacturer and the chemical entry or entries under which the tradename is grouped in the first volume. This makes it possible for users to investigate chemical alternatives for a product by knowing only one identifying tradename.
