Introductory Note
PCB is complex in many ways, not the least of which is the nomenclature
used to name and otherwise identify its various species. This page
is an attempt to bring together in one place the relevant names and numbers
needed to correctly specify as many PCB species as possible, in an easily
accessible reference document. The data presented here have been
carefully checked for accuracy and completeness. However, we encourage
anyone finding a possible error or omission to contact
us at once, so that we can correct it. We also welcome any other
questions or suggestions for additions or improvements.
