Adhesion promoters form a very important group of additives without which many industrial products (28 product groups made out of 29 different polymeric materials) cannot perform according to requirements. The present publication on this subject is mostly related to silanes, which form the most widely used group of these additives. The information on silanes is still based on the book which was published in the beginning of 1980s. Since then many new additives were introduced into the market. Many of these new additives are not based on silanes but on one of over 30 chemical groups of chemical compounds needed for a variety of products in which silanes do not function, are too expensive, or better performance can be achieved with these new additives, some of which are environmentally friendly and come from renewable resources.

Databook of Adhesion Promoters contains extensive data on the most important products in the use today. Two groups of data are included: data for some chemical compounds used for the manufacture of adhesion promoters (data included come from many available sources and contain extensive reference) and commercial products (data from a single supplier of material).

The information on each adhesion promoter included in the Databook of Adhesion Promoters is divided into five sections: General information, Physical properties, Health and safety, Ecological properties, and Use & performance. The data belong to almost 150 data fields, which accommodate a variety of data available in the source publications. The description of each section below gives more detail on the composition of information.

In General information section, the following data are displayed: name, CAS #, EC #, Acronym, Active matter, Amine number, Amine value, Chemical class, Chemical structure, Common synonym, Complexed organics, Composition, Empirical formula, Functional organic group, Functionality (average), General description, IUPAC name, Metal content, Mixture, Moisture content, Molecular formula, Molecular mass, Molecular structure, Moisture contents, Name, Number of metals, Organoreactive group, Purity, RTECS number, and Solids content.

Physical-chemical properties section contains data on State, Odor, Color, Color (Gardener), Color (platinum-cobalt scale), Acid number, Acidity, Ash content, Boiling point, Freezing point, Glass transition temperature, Melting point, Pour point, Chloride content, Cloud point, Density, Evaporation rate, Hildebrand solubility parameter, Hydrolysable chloride, Hydrolysis half-time, Hydroxyl number, Kinematic viscosity, Melt flow rate, Neutralizing agent, Nitrogen content, pH, Refractive index, Saponification value, Solubility in water and solvents, Solubility (diluents), Specific gravity, Specific heat, Sulfur content, Surface tension, Thermal decomposition products, Thermal stability (TGA), Vapor density, Vapor pressure, Viscosity, Viscosity SUS, and Volatility.

Health and safety section contains data on Autoignition temperature, Flash point, Flash point method, Explosive LEL, Explosive UEL, NFPA Health, NFPA Flammability, NFPA Reactivity, HMIS Health, HMIS Fire, HMIS Reactivity, Hazardous combustion products, Agency ratings, Hazard ingredients labelling, Hazardous hydrolysis products, UN number, UN Risk Phrases, R, UN Safety Phrases, S, DOT Class, ICAO/IATA class, IMDG class, TDG class, UN/NA hazard class, UN risk and safety phrases, ICAO/IATA Class, IMDG Class, OSHA hazard class, Rat oral LD50, Mouse oral LD50, Guinea pig dermal LD50, Rabbit dermal LD50, Inhalation rat LC50, Skin irritation, Eye irritation, Ingestion, Inhalation, Effect of repeated or overexposure, First aid: eyes, skin, and inhalation, Exposure personal protection, ACIGH, NIOSH, and OSHA exposure limits, Carcinogenicity by ACGIH, IARC, NTP, and OSHA, Mutagenicity, Teratogenicity, and Specific target organ.

Ecological properties section contains data on Bioaccumulative potential, Bioconcentration factor, Biodegradation probability, Aquatic toxicity LC50 (Green algae, Rainbow trout, Bluegill sunfish, Fathead minnow, Zebra fish, and Daphnia magna), Biological, Chemical, and Theoretical Oxygen Demand, BOD/COD ratio, and Partition coefficient (log Koc and log Kow), and Stability in water half-life.

Use & performance section contains information on Manufacturer, Outstanding properties, Potential substitute, Recommended for polymers, Recommended for products, Recommended applications, Processing methods, Concentration used, Guidelines for use, Food approvals, Alternative products, and Conditions to avoid.

The above data are given, whenever available, for approximately 400 most important adhesion promoters produced and used today.

The fields used in the databook are listed in alphabetical order. The information on data in a particular field includes a glossary of term, unit of measurement, typical methods used to measure quantities available in the databook.
