RESEARCH both f u n d a m e n t a l a n d a p p l i e d , creates new products and processes and improves upon old ones. (Indicative of the company's emphasis on longrange research, the new Central Basic Research Laboratory was formed early in 1960.) In addition to wideranging investigations in lubricants, waxes, detergents, synthetic rubbers, etc., current projects probe such areas as:
ENGINEERING creates the facilities which new products and processes require and provides a complete engineering service to the company's affiliated operations around the world. Its functions include: Engineering and operations research, long-range planning, evaluation and selection of processes, economic studies and cost estimating.
Reaction mechanisms, skeletal rearrangements, hydrogen transfer, catalysis of enzymes.
Basic and definitive design for process plants, application of computers to design problems, engineering laboratory investigations and plant tests.
Boron compounds for use in more energetic solid propellants.
Site selection, field engineering, supervision of new construction and start-up of new equipment.
Hydrocarbon fuel cell that converts oil directly into electricity. C h e m i c a l e n g i n e e r i n g r e s e a r c h on s e p a r a t i o n processes such as extraction and absorption to obtain, for example, basic d a t a on m a s s t r a n s f e r a n d adsorption. Unraveling the composition and structure of petroleum and petrochemicals, and relating them to physical and chemical properties. Applications research relating to new polymers and petrochemical products.
Association with recognized colleagues, advanced training and education programs, modern equipment and library facilities ...all foster an environment that strongly encourages individual achievement. Both company locations (Linden and Florham Park, New Jersey) combine the advantages of suburban living with easy access to New York City.
