Where can I find a statistic of the world production of commodity plastics (PVC, PE, PS) from 1950 to now?

A great place to start is becoming a member of the Society of Plastics Engineers (SPE). There is an India section. First I would contact one of the leaders there. SPE is a great resource for employment and business opportunities worldwide.

You're best bet is to contact the resin manufacturers.  When you get the operator just tell them you have a technical question regarding (whatever you want) and they'll transfer you immediately....for some reason most people wig out when they hear the word "technical."  Try Geon, Solvay, Vinnolit, Vinycel, Kaneka, Mitsubishi, or Formosa to name a few.  You might also have luck with PVC compounders such as PolyOne or Marchem.  Otherwise, you could by some books devoted to the subject - The Encyclopedia of PVC Vols 1-4 is an excellent resource.  However, unless you have a few hundred bucks at your disposal I don't reccomend this.  Good luck!

I don't understand 100% your question. But one of the best sources of information for any kind of chemicals is NIST.\nBelow you have some data on polyethylene.\n\nhttp://webbook.nist.gov/cgi/cbook.cgi?ID=C9002884&Units=SI&Mask=4#Thermo-Phase\nhttp://webbook.nist.gov/cgi/cbook.cgi?ID=C9002884&Units=SI&Mask=2#Thermo-Condensed\nhttp://webbook.nist.gov/cgi/cbook.cgi?ID=C9002884&Units=SI&Type=SS\n\nGood luck!

Sorry I couldn't find exactly 1989, however, the 2002 report (which I assume will be very similar to 1989 if you're just asking what types of fruits and vegetables were grown)... is found here:\n(The 1992 link seems to be broken).\n2002:\nhttp://www.nass.usda.gov/census/census02/profiles/ca/cp99006.PDF\n\nIn general, if you want statistics, government websites are usually good places to go to first, unless you know a specific organization which deals with the subject (in which case they may have compiled the government statistics for you already).

<grin>\nThe wonderful thing about standards is that there so many to choose from.</grin>\n\nAre you thinking plastic or metal/glass?\nWhat country are you thinking of?\n\nDid not find anything specific but did find some leads you may want to follow up.\n\n"The Wiley Encyclopedia of Packaging Technology", Second Edition, Brody & Marsh, 1997. \n"The Handbook of Packaging Engineering", Third Edition, Hanlon, 1997.

Ok... I was thinking of plastics...my bad..hehe\n\nHere`s some info I found\n\nToday Asia is the main source of natural rubber. Over half of the rubber used today is synthetic, but several million tonnes of natural rubber are still produced annually, and is still essential for some industries, including automotive and military.
