Each year, several thousand new chemicals are introduced into
commerce. Public interest for more stringent controls on hazardous
materials and for preservation of our natural resources has
affected regulations and industry policies. Furthermore, a heightened
public awareness of hazardous materials has contributed to an
ever-increasing number of environmentally-related claims.
