Thank you Mumtaz. I am a member of the American Chemical Society and am aware of the CAS databases, but you have to have an account to search it. As I am a cost focused individual (current business-speak for CHEAP), I was looking for other public sources. But, I may just have to bite the bullet and pay the money.

Before going off to do an afternoon of googling, does anyone know: a. is there a good central location on polymeric materials and their constituent materials? b. Do you know if Teflon contains any of the current substances of very high concern (SVHCs)? I know that polymers are exempt from Registration, but not from reporting. Thanks.
