Announcing the 1955 Glycerine Research Awards FIRST AWARD Honor Plaque SECOND AWARD Honor Certificate THIRD AWARD Honor Certificate
The purpose of this group of awards, established in 1952 by the Glycerine Producers' Association, is to recognize and encourage research leading to new and improved applications of glycerine or glycerine derivatives to products or processes. The work may concern itself with the chemical, physical or physiological properties of glycerine, or with properties of glycerine-containing or glycerinederived materials. It may deal with applications which of themselves are currently or potentially of value to industry or the general public, or it may deal with scientific principles or procedures likely to stimulate future application. Originality in extending the application of glycerine into new fields of usefulness will receive special consideration for awards. VOLUME
