CHEM 348: Polymer Chemistry: Home

Introduction

In our library instruction session, we will be focusing on using CAS SciFinder, a powerful database compiling chemistry references, including articles, reaction schemes, experimental procedures, substance properties, characterizations, spectra, and more. If is your first time using SciFinder, take a moment to set up an account using the link in the box below.

Where do I find SciFinder?

You may not want to continually refer back to this libguide in order to access SciFinder. Other options are to bookmark the login screen on your computer, or navigate to the database from our A-Z Database list, filtered by chemistry. SciFinder will be located in the gray "Best Bets" box at the top of the screen.
