GLAD TO BE ABLE TO HELP... Celanese presents industry with BPL*—chemical with a wide-open future Such is t h e versatility . . . a n d potential . . . of Celanese B P L (beta-Propiolactone) that the scope of its use must b e broad indeed. B P L itself can be useful within a wide range of applications. I n addition, its rapid re activity with a large group of other chemi cals makes it the starting point for synthesis of many new materials useful to science and industry. B P L is now being evaluated for use in the
textile and leather industries . . . as a com ponent in the processing of plastics, paints, dyestuffs and synthetic fibers . . . in starches a n d adhesives... in medical and hospital ap plications . . . in agricultural a n d food tech nology . . . in nucleonics and astronautics. Among the multitude of uses yet to be developed, tested, and produced, may be one in which you're interested. As always, we'll b e more than happy to help you. if we can.
