How the RCA electron microscope helps
U.S. RUBBER "ta i lor -make" synthetic latex to order
Count-Rate Meter
Says the U.S. Rubber Company:
"We undertook the study of synthetic latex to see if particle size had some relation to problems connected with dipping products—like balloons and rubber gloves, for instance. Latex would riot dry readily. Nor could it be concentrated easily.
" W i t h the aid of the RCA Electron Microscope, we found that synthetic rubber latex could be improved for dipping—if we made it up in larger particles. Also, with the instrument we were able to study the effects of many ingredients on particle size.
"Result: Today we can regulate the particle size of synthetic latex, not only to improve it for dipping, but also to make small-particle latex that readily penetrates between cloth and paper fibers-for better impregnation."
This is another example of how RCA Electron Microscopes are helping industry solve fundamental problems of product research and processing. For information on the usefulness of the RCA Electron Microscope in your field, write Department P -98 , RCA Engineering Products, Camden, New Jersey.
