"X-ray Diffraction is an indispensable instr ment in any study involving crystal structur _ It is a magnificent industrial tool for deter mining the course of chemical reactions in the manufacture and use of materials. It is a key unit in our search for better methods and im proved products, because it provides basic information on component structure that can be obtained in no other known way.' • Chief of Anal ytkal Research for^JohnsMonville
