(ORONITE) first and most experienced
—check these advantages α Since 1956 Oronite has been on-strearaa with xylene-derived isophthalic. Prior t o 1956 Oronite invested eight years developing isophthalic* Not a commer cial resin producer» Oronite supplies its raw material, isophthalic, t o resin, paint and plastics producers throughout the world· Oronite, the original a n d most experienced producer of isophthalic, maintains distribution terminals a t key consuming points in the East and Midwest to serve isophthalic and phthalic anyhydride customers quickly. Look to Oronite, the one experienced isophthalic resource, for the most help in applying this new raw material to your individual requirements.
Vastly s u p e r i o r e x t e r i o r h o u s e p a i n t s ! Employing an isophthalic resin, W. P . Fuller & Co., one of the nation's leading paint suppliers, says, "spectacular new house paint adds at least 2 extra years of paint beauty to , *w ^vur ncme." For the first time in yeârs> aew quality standards are a reality with isophthalic-based resins.
Interior A l k y d F l a t s a n d Gloss E n a m e l s ! Better at no cost premium. Flats with better washability, hiding and non-staining properties t h a t are easy to apply and clean. Gloss Enamels hscve exceptional scrubability, better flexibility, greater resistance to chippir*g, better gloss retention and non-yellowing characteristics.
Touglier, h a r d e r B a k i n g F i n i s h e s ! Baking Finishes with better gloss retention — greater resistance to alkali, mineral spirits, and water. Higher-temperature baking schedules — less time for products in baking oven — more profit.
Years of e x t r a s e r v i c e from I n d u s t r i a l F i n i s h e s ! Better film to metal bonding means improved paint performance saves time, cuts painting costs. Tougher films hiave better abrasion resistance, hold up longer under weather conditions, have better gloss retention. C O P Y R I G H T © 1958 BY O R O N I T E C H E M I C A L 5004

products Epoxy strengths in reinforced laminates at polyester prices! Molded Fiber Glass Company, world's largest producers of fiber glass reinforced plastic products, says this about Oronite® Isophthalic, "tests made by Molded Fiber Glass Research Co. proved that an isophthalic-type polyester resin gave us both increased toughness and increased craze resistance at all normal temperatures. We have adopted isophthalic-type polyester resins in all our boat hull and automotive applications." Polyester resin suppliers and plastics fabricators have proved to themselves many great advantages of isophthalic resins. Plastic products are produced with greater initial strength, toughness, higher heat distortion temperatures, greater flexural strength — and find that strengths under use conditions are considerably superior to conventional resin based plastics. Better resistance to corrosion is another proven benefit from isophthalic resins. Superior wetting properties of isophthalic resins have also reduced manufacturing costs by lowering time and labor.
Polyester coatings! ίτ^ΤΛ.^ * *
Isophthalic polyester coating more corrosion and chemical resistant. A superior adhesive patching compound employing an isophthalic resin was recently marketed. Isophthalic resins with such important advanced performance characteristics open up new horizons and new applications for both industrial and consumer reinforced plastic products.
