Switch to paraformaldehyde and boost batch size up to 30% —eliminate expensive storage tanks, storage heating prob­ lems, piping and pumps. Celanese paraformaldehyde is a low-priced, free-flowing white solid containing a minimum of 9 1 % available formal­ dehyde and, obviously, very little water. If you use aqueous formaldehyde, a change to para may give you the equivalent of bigger-plant capacity, and cut overall costs too. Para provides two-and-a-half times as much formalde­ hyde as commercial 37% formalin, which means substan­ tially larger yields in less processing time. Sewage disposal problems are simplified because there's less water to start with. Para can be stored in facilities costing a fraction of the outlay needed for insulated formalin storage tanks. And para helps you keep a sharp eye on utility bills, since its shorter processing time requires less steam, power and water consumption.

Celanese paraformaldehyde is practically unbeatable for the production of high-solids resins —urea, phenolic and resorcinol — particularly if the removal of water from the finished resin is indicated. Para may be equally unbeatable for your application. Why not evaluate its possibilities? Considered on a chemical and cost basis, Celanese para­ formaldehyde qualifies as the preferred formaldehyde choice for present economies and future planning.
