D.1 INTRODUCTION
This appendix presents the tradenames used around the world for polymeric raw
materials, as well as semi-finished products. The list contains the tradename,
polymer name, form of delivery, company and webpage for each material. The
raw material and semi-finished product form of delivery nomenclature used is
presented in Table D.1.
Table D.2, which presents the tradenames is current at the time this handbook
is published. However, a current list is kept with the electronic version of the
book at http://www.hanser.de/plasticshandbook
