IMAGINATION PLUS HARDWICKE: IT COULD BE A TOUCH OF GENIUS THAT CREATES OUR CHEMICAL ARTISTRY. Creating new organic intermediates is more than a skillful endeavor. For Hardwicke Chemical, it is an art. We approach the elegant symmetries of chemistry as a sculptor models his clay. That's why we're the world's leading manufacturer of synthetic pyrethroid intermediates. Hardwicke fashions these masterpieces using bromine to create the "clay" by binding common raw materials together. Then bromine becomes our modeling tool, exquisitely sculpting that clay into its final form, metaphenoxybenzaldehyde. Our imagination constantly challenges our skill and touch with bromine in the search for new processes and applications.
But our artistry is not limited to bromine. We shape many original products with a broad range of new uses. Hardwicke's virtuosity is in creating complex syntheses with commercial potential in existing multi-purpose plants. And as a whollyowned subsidiary of Ethyl Corporation, one of the nation's largest chemical companies, our resources are enormous. Let us configure a new product for you in commercial quantities at a reasonable price. That virtually eliminates a risky capital investment and accelerates your time to market. Call the Hardwicke Chemical Company, (803) 438-3471, and ask for Marketing. We're a part of the Ethyl Chemicals Group.

IMAGINATION PLUS "ETHYL" ALUMINUM ALKYLS REACT TO CLEAR UP THE SAFETY QUESTION. Here's how a foggy notion became a safety breakthrough at Ethyl. Everyone knows liquid water is perhaps the worst way to handle an aluminum alkyl spill. The reaction is violently exothermic. Ethyl discovered that a water fog reacts far less severely. Even major aluminum alkyl spills can be controlled with a properly engineered foggenerating installation. It cools the system, absorbing the heat of hydrolysis by evaporation. Nobody knows more about aluminum alkyls than we do. Ethyl Technical Services set the standards for shipping containers, unloading and safety procedures, even facilities design. As a result,
our customers find handling these highly reactive compounds a routine matter. Nobody produces more aluminum alkyls than Ethyl. We have four strategically located plants to serve you. And 27 years of research and development assures you the highest quality ETHYL® aluminum alkyl at the right price. Your Ethyl representative is ready to provide you with application information including organic reductions, alkylations and handling procedures. Write or call the Ethyl Chemicals Group, 451 Florida Blvd., Baton Rouge, LA 70801. (800) 535-3030. In Louisiana, (504)388-7556.
