Ortho-nitrobiphenyl, low-cost plasticizer, is available now In this day of ^tiurlit" plastiri/cr supplies, M o n s a n t o O r t h o - n i t r o b i p h e n y l (OXB> may 1χ· thr means of solving several of your problems. Λ low-cost, primary plastiei/er. ortho-nitrobiphenyl (also known as ortbo-nitrodiphenyl ) is compatible with a wide ranime of materials. And it is avail able . . . in q u a n t i t y . . . noie.' Ortho-nitrobiphenyl is compatible with the cellulose- esters and ethers, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinyl butyral, polyvinyl ace tate·, .styrcne. rosin and rosin esters, modi fied phenolic resins, oil-soluble alkyd resins and vegetable oils. This wide compatibil ity, plus its low hydrolysis rate and low price, makes O X B an unusually attrac tive· plasticizc-r. Most re-sins, both natural a n d synthetic, can be plasticized with O X B . 1 he a m o u n t of required phtstiei^er varies with the resins and the· use- the- finished product is to be put to. The- volatility of ortho-nitrobiphe-nyl is less than diethyl phthalatc a n d greater than elibutyl p h t h a l a t c .
In addition to bring an efficient, econom ical plasticize-r, O X B imparts fungicidal properties to textiles coated with O.VBplasticized nitrocellulose, polyvinyl ace tate, polyvinyl formal, polyvinyl butyral, cellulose- acetate. Vinylite V Y H H a n d styrene·. Ortho-nitro /iphenyl is readily soluble in carbon tetrachloride, mineral spirits, pine oil, turpentine·, benzene, acetone, glacial acetic acid and pcrchlorethylcnc. It is a good solvent. For further information on Monsanto Ortho-nitrobiphenyl, contact the nearest Monsanto Sales Oilier or mail the coupon.
