WITH PENTAERYTHRITOL. Outstanding resistance to heat, to light, and to moisture have made PE-based alkyd resins the preferred approach to many of the newest developments in surface coatings. Other applications for this new chemical—in such things as vinyl plastics, fire-retardant paints, and floor coverings—are growing rapidly. The demand for P E has skyrocketed. And Hercules, with a new Midwest producing plant, is assuring ample room for even further product developments. WITH PLASTICS. The first commercial plant utilizing the famed Ziegler process is now on stream in Parlin, N. J. producing Hi-fax®. This completely new Hercules ethylene polymer offers a combination of characteristics never before available in any plastic. The panel board below displays some of the superior housewares made with Hi-fax. Providing many advantages over conventional polyethylene, Hi-fax is already finding other applications in a wide variety of products.
