DSM is dynamic

The Temple of Ammon is dear to the heart of D S M . Because it was there, (Pliny tells us) in the city of Thebes, that the Egyptians discovered a hard, white crystalline salt. In honor of the spot they named the salt ammonia. The name has stuck for thousands of years, as a key word in chemistry, the kind of modern chemistry applied at D S M . Ammonia is the basic material for the 1,200,000 tons of nitrogen fertilizer D S M turns out each year. Combined with carbon dioxide, ammonia is processed to urea at D S M . And ammonium sulphate is a by-product of the 100,000 tons of caprolactam D S M will make in 1966. So D S M doffs its hat to Ammon. And goes right on producing his namesake for the temples of modern industry. D S M chemicals include: i n o r g a n i c s a complete line of nitrogen fertilizers and compound fertilizers. o r g a n i c s phenol and caprolactam for nylon 6. p o l y m e r s low density and high density polyethylene sold under the trade mark S T A M Y L A N * and several other chemical products. *Reg. trade mark of DSM
