cçThis free-flowing form of Du Pont Urea has permitted quite a number of users in my area to simplify and speed up processing." This report from D u Pont Poly chemicals representative Bob Harbour is typical of comments received during recent months.

An evaluation of Du Pont Shotted Urea in your operations may prove to be the answer to one of your process­ing problems. Or if you require urea i n its crystalline form, remember that D u Pon t Crystal Urea still sets the standard for purity for all industrial chemicals . » . no other chemical product sold in tonnage lots has higher purity.

Few other chemicals, too, have a w ide r range of app l ica t ions t han D u Pon t Urea. Urea-formaldehyde resin adhesives . . . wet-strength coat­ings textile sizes and finishes... and urea-formaldehyde molding compo­sitions are a few of the principal uses for this versatile chemical. Strict ad­herence to rigid specifications assures t h e user of dependable purity and uniformity.

In order to speed deliveries to you, D u Pont is currently expanding its distribution facilities. Prompt ship­ments can now be made from a num­ber of stock points strategically lo­cated throughout the country.

We have information about Du Pont Crystal Urea and Du Pont Shotted Urea which may be helpful to you. Simply use the coupon and we will send it on to you promptly.

No matter how you do it, get word to Morton for help in solving any salt problem

The Morton Salt Company offers fast help from salt specialists—at no cost to you. You get the best pcssible help when we dispatch a Morton Consulting Engi­neer in your area to your plant. He's an expert when i t comes to solving problems relating to salt—and he's backed by the services of chemists and salt scientists a t Morton's ultra-modern salt research laboratory.

A Morton Consulting Engineer can help you de­termine which grade, or grades, of salt will do the best, most economical job in your particular opera­tion. He can help you expand or modernize a brine installation or plan a new water softening system. Best of all, these services don't cost you a cent— and they may well save you hundreds of dollars.

Whatever your salt needs are, Morton can fill them promptly and economically. Morton produces

many grades of salt for use by the chemical industry. Only Mor ton has nine strategically Located plants to serve you. And only Morton can offer fast delivery from a. bag to a trainload, at favorable prices and freight;, anywhere in the country.

Sending distress signals from a mountain top is advisable only if you're steeped in the cade of the hills. The best way to get help, of course, is to write or taire.

RCI phenol- formaldehyde r e s i n s -permit fast curing of shell molds for intricate engine parts; help create long-lasting battery separators; serve as efficient, economical binders for fibrous glass hood insulation and the brake linings required to control today's higher horse­powers. (And top quality RCI phenol goes into important engine oil additives.)

@ RCI sur face coating resins—include alkyd resins for superior automotive finishes and polyvinyl acetate emulsions for durable exterior masonry paints.

@ RCI polyester res ins — combine with diisocyanate to produce polyurethane foams (cur­rently being considered for auto seat cushions) ; permit fast production and uniform results in such reinforced plastics products as sturdy boat hulls and water skis.

fjjl RCI pure amd m o d i f i e d p h e n o l i c r e s i n s — make auto waxes and polishes harder and longer-lived.

€ 1 R C I p e n t a o h l o r o p h e n o l — is an import­ant ingredient in easily-applied preservatives for wood. It helps make wood exposed to weather last for many years.

R C I u r e a - f o r m a l d e h y d e res ins — add wet strength to paper "windshield towels."

R C I e s t e r g u m s — constitute the base for many of today's bubble gums; are also used in leather adhesives.

The next time you have a supply problem (or a technical problem), take a look at RCI. See where fast delivery of these quality-controlled RCI ma­terials (or any of those listed with our signature) can help you.
