INTRODUCING
IÎIMN!U:E . . . BY SWIFT
225 χ magnification Scale 1 mm = 4.4 microns The photo micrographs indicate how FLEXICHEM CS (A) compares in size and uniformity to typical samples of commercially available 325-mesh calcium stéarates (Β and C).
New, extra fine calcium stéarate promotes surface coverage FLEXICHEM CS is a new impalpable calcium stéarate of such fine particle size that it defies measurement by usual screening methods. Its average particle size is 5 to 7 microns while maximum size will range to only 20 microns. To calcium stéarate users, this unique property can spell greater surface coverage and improved mileage for every pound of FLEXICHEM CS used . . . whether it's used as a mold release agent, anti-caking or waterproofing agent, or as a lubricant in the plastics or rubber field. In addition, FLEXICHEM CS contains less than 0.6% moisture, is extremely low in water soluble salts, and has less than 0.2 P P M of combined arsenic and lead. Look over its other properties on the chart—then write for details on a trial or sample quantity of Swift's new FLEXICHEM CS. FLEXICHEM is Swiff s trade name for a new family of "light" metallic complexes made possible by a new simplified reaction process. The benefit of Swift's development experience in utilizing these new stéarates is available to serve you· Write for details.
