Nopco B O N D I N G and S I Z I N G AGENTS make things that should stay put, stay put Perhaps nothing exemplifies t h i n g s that should "stay put*' better than asphalt. Thousands of miles o f roadway depend o n its durability. R o a d b e d s rapidly deteriorate w h e n the asphalt fails to bond properly to the aggregate. H o w e v e r , incorporation of a N o p c o b o n d i n g aid in the asphalt instantly develops a tenacious permanent bond between cut-back asphalt and aggregate even if the stone is wet. T h u s roads can be laid in rainy or inclement weather. In the production of asphalt shingles and tile this same N o p c o aid gives better bond between asphalt and fillers, increases strength and gives a smoother surface. In a very different field, that of textiles, N o p c o chemical agents are again found helping t o
make t h i n g s "stay put". For example, both natural and synthetic fibers must be sized before w e a v i n g , s o that they are capable of withstanding the friction encountered o n looms. Application of specially developed N o p c o w a r p sizes, for natural and synthetic yarns, assures firm, yet flexible, coating over eacH individual thread to protect it from abrasion. Perhaps you are l o o k i n g for a high-performance b o n d i n g aid, o r sizing agent, that w i l l better an item you produce. If so, profit by consult! ng w i t h us. Or, if you require some other processing chemical, let us have your specifications.
