ELECTROLUMINESCENCE: TOMORROW'S LIGHT. The newest word for light is Cyanamid's CYANOCEL* chemically modified cellulose. A cyanoethylated, highly refined cellulose, CYANOCEL is the most efficient dielectric carrier for the filling in the "light sandwich" that makes possible lights without heat, glare or moving parts.
