ITIERE'S American scientific inge­nuity at its best . . . a plastic ball that makes life-saving fresh water from the sun and the sea. The prin­ciple is simple: Solar heat evaporates sea water from a black "wick" and the distilled vapors condense on the cooler inner surface of the sphere.

But one of the real challenges was to produce a vinyl plastic that wouldn't succumb to salt water, heat and long storage. That was a job for a good plasticizer. As a basic

producer we're continually being called upon for plasticizers to meet every demand, from low temperature flexi­

bility in Arctic-bound military coverings to high stability in surgical tubing. What­

ever the challenge, plastics manufacturers ave learned to count on the uniform high

quality of Pittsburgh PX Plasticizers . . . an advantage that accrues from our unique coal-co-finished plasticizer production control. This same assurance of quality carries right through the products of our other integrated divisions . . . because we're basic.
