This reference describes more than 16,000 tradename and generic chemicals that function as rubber and plastic additive ingredients in the formulation of a variety of end products. Information about these functional materials has been gathered from more than 1,800 worldwide manufacturers, their subsidiaries and distributors.

Natural rubbers and synthetic elastomers are said to derive their commercial versatility from the incorporation of additives classified into three categories, including antidegradants (antiozonants and antioxidants Antioxidants
