Now...you can tailor the properties of your polymers with these high-purity raw materials
Today, polymer properties can be modified to suit your needs with use of high-purity alpha olefins. Polyethylene and polypropylene are examples of polymers being "broadened." However, widespread use of alpha olefins has been handicapped by the need for commercial production. But now Gulf will soon be shipping
multi-million-pound quantities of nalpha olefins from its new plant at Cedar Bayou, Texas —olefins of consistently high quality, made by ethylene polymerization. If you're a plastics manufacturer interested in producing new and better polymers, investigate the Gulf "family" of alpha olefins. The C 4 to C2o ma-
olefins
terials offer a remarkable range of high-purity monomers and may prove to be the basis of your most success ful new polymer.
