The Polymer Indexing Thesaurus provides an alphabetical list of all the main terms and secondary terms or synonyms within the Polymer Index.

The concepts are listed in strict alphabetical order, with the following characters within a chemical name being ignored:

Roman Numerals
e.g. Copper(II) chloride is found by looking for Copper chloride
n-, s-, t-
e.g. Di t-butyl peroxide is found by looking under Di butyl peroxide
o-, m-, p-
e.g. Poly m-phenylene isophthalamide is found by looking under Poly phenylene isophthalamide

Chemical symbols are included within the alphabetical order, for example Si-N-Si [chemical aspects] is between the entries for Silylation and Sintering.
