1 Compiled by F. J. Van Antwerpen, Associate Editor, INDUSTRIAL AND ENQINEERINQ CHEMISTRY.Data in practically every case were supplied by the manufacturers, and this accounts for discrepancies between like compounds. No attempt was made t o check or test claims. Mixtures of plaatics sometimes exert a mutual plasticizing effect, but the plastics which produce such a condition are not listed here as plasticizers. 0 1. = soluble, not otherwise specified; S. 9. = slightly soluble, not otherwise specified; Insol. = insoluble. 8 Plastics in which products can be used: A. acrylic resins; Alk. alkydresin: As. = asphalt; B. C. = benzylcellulose; Cs. casein; C. A. = cellulose acetobutyrate; C. A. P. = cellulose cellulose aoetate; C. A. B.
