Compare these reductions carefully. Not only does Vitride Reducing Agent provide substantial dollar savings—approximately 15% in the example illustrated—but also simplifies the procedure as shown in the flow diagrams. You might even call it saving the safe way because Vitride Reducing Agent has reactivity comparable to lithium aluminum hydride and dibutyl aluminum hydride without the hazards. For example, Vitride Reducing Agent does not ignite spontaneously when exposed to moist air or oxygen —no need for an inert atmosphere or special equipment. That means greater freedom in handling, too. Economy...safety...handling convenience—Vitride Reducing Agent now offers all three. Shouldn t you know more about it?
