Methocel (Dow Methylcellulose) is widely re­garded as an ideal binder because of its superior film forming properties. Solutions of Methocel dry to a transparent, colorless, tough yet flexible film.

Many manufacturers have found MethoceFs bind­ing ability a valuable aid in product improvement. I t is used as a binder and suspending agent in water base paints, ceramic glazes, abrasive wheels, agricultural sprays, seed coatings and in paper coatings. Methocel is a water-soluble synthetic gum that possesses five outstanding qualities: an ideal binder; an excellent emulsion stabilizer; an

economical thickener; a tough film former and an efficient suspending agent. For any use, you will find that Methocel is tops in quality—batch after batch matching the same high specifications.

If you have not yet tried Methocel . . . the chemical of ever growing usefulness . . . write Dept . Μ Ε-21 for your free, experimental sample of powdered Methocel. Please state possible applica­tion and desired viscosity.
