cent, humectant or solvent action. Recent re­search with new thickening agents indicates that these properties of Glycerine will soon be extended to a whole new range of pharmaceuti­cal preparations.

Glycerine has been known for years to be compatible -with conventional water soluble gums and gelling agents such as Gum Arabic and Karaya. New studies show that Glycerine is also compatible with a majority of the new synthetic gums. In most cases, Glycerine sup­plements the bodying action of these gums, and

the resultant formulations are relatively unaf­fected by freezing and thawing.

Other fields, too, will benefit from this com­patibility of Glycerine. Nontoxic lubricants are now possible. Important improvements in print­ing inks, grinding and polishing pastes, gasket seals—all making use of Glycerine's unique bal­ance of properties—are promised.

The versatility that has won such wide ac­ceptance for Glycerine in the past continues to open new doors to chemical progress. In paints, foods, pharmaceuticals, packaging . . . for to­morrow's surge of specialties . . . in new formu­lations, reactions and processes, nothing takes the place of Glycerine.
