SS "wet-strength" is a fact Calling a paper "wet-strength" does not make it so. Scientists know that when it says S&S it is, in fact, wet strength. "Ash-Free" or "Ash-Low," genuine wetstrength papers come from S&S. "Ash-Free" for Quantitative Analysis: No. 589-1H. Hardened. Extra Rapid. Thin. For filtration of metallic hydroxides. No. 589-BH. Hardened. Rapid. Coarse and gelatinous ppts pressure filtration. No. 589 WH. Hardened. Medium speed and retention. For gravimetric analysis. No. 589 Red. To prevent collodial dis persion during filtration and washing. No. 507 Hardened. Extra dense. Separa tion of finely divided ppts from corrosive solutions. "Ash-Low" for Qualitative Analysis: No. 410 Extremely rapid. Thin. Gelati nous and coarse crystallines. No. 404 Very rapid. Soft. Loose texture. Coarse and gelatinous precipitates. No. 497 Moderately rapid. Retains pre cipitates that are moderately fine. No. 402 Dense. For filtration of very fine precipitates. No. 576 Extra dense. Hardened smooth. Biological products filtration (serum, in jection fluids). Analytical Filter Papers catalog available on request.

ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY
We could go on and on about pos sible further applications of fiber optics in industrial situations and in the laboratory, but the purpose of this report has been only to stimulate the interest of analytical chemists in an active area of tech nology t h a t has been relatively untouted in chemical publications. Suffice it to say t h a t much more work has been and is being done in such areas as design of fiber optic amplifiers (17), high voltage t r a n s mission monitoring, instrumenta tion for measuring pressure, vibra tion, and force, camera lenses, fiber optics systems responsive to sound and electric impulses, and systems with holding potential for memory devices. W h y shouldn't chemists be interested in fiber optics ? Fiber op tics m a y be a key in your future re search!

Better still, water that pure (15 meg ohms) is on TAP, fresh from IWT's Duplex De-Ionizer. Resin color change accurately tells you remaining capa city as well as when to change car tridges. (Conductivity meters tell water quality, when to change but not remaining capacity. I W T offers meters at extra cost.) Changing is simple and inexpensive. Further, the Duplex idea where water goes through both cartridges lets you exhaust a cartridge fully — you get better water at less cost. IWT lonXchangers are ideal for labs.
Let us send you a copy of Bui. DX-268 — 4page, 4-color descrip t i o n of purity, cartridge options, m o u n t i n g fix tures and c o s t s .
