AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY ANNOUNCES 3 NEW TITLES IN THE

ADVANCES IN CHEMISTRY SERIES HO. 4 2 / BORON-NITROGEN CHEMISTRY contains thirty-two papers presented at the BoronNitrogen Chemistry Symposium sponsored by the U. S. Army Research Office—Durham. These papers contain contributions from many subdisciplines of chemistry and emphasize the close collaboration of classical chemistry with advanced techniques and modern theoretical treatments. Laubengayer's synthesis of B-trichloroborazine, which tended to replace high vacuum techniques by more classical approaches, and the use of spectroscopy as a tool for explaining structures and mechanisms, stimulated by the work of Goubeau and his school, are two major advances which have influenced the growth of research in boron-nitrogen chemistry. Both of these leaders along with M. F. Lappert, W. N. Lipscomb, M. Kubo, and M. J. S. Dewar are represented. 330 Pages, cloth bound $7.50

Block Memorial Symposium, organized by the Division of Biological Chemistry of the American Chemical Society.

No. 43/CONTACT ANGLE, WETTABILITY, AND ADHESION This is the largest and best collection of up-to-date papers giving both theoretical and practical ap­ proaches to wettability and adhesion—a subject important to many areas of science and technology. Papers report the latest work, survey progress, and suggest new directions for research and application. Moreover, the papers are sufficiently current and broad in scope so as to include thoughtprovoking, controversial points of view. Some papers deal with the chemical structure of solid surfaces, solid-fluid interfacial tensions, and flow in capillaries as related to contact angle discussed in other papers. Still others explore adhesion theories, thermodynamics of wettability, chemisorption, coadsorption on metals, spreading of oils on surfaces and its prevention, a computer 108

Sinclair

New concepts in emulsion polymer systems to improve your product. Through the development of a unique family of low molecular weight SMA Resins, short chain copoly­ mers of styrene and maleic anhydride, new and diversified routes to a broad spectrum of emulsion polymer systems of both alkaline and acid stable va­ rieties are now available. The wide variety of SMA derivatives that can be used as emulsifiers and protective colloids provide the chemist with materials to devise new techniques for controlling properties of finished formulations in which the emulsion is employed.

Basic information required for the preparation of a number of polymer emulsions and starting recipes illustrating the value of SMA Resins in emulsion poly­ merization is available upon request. Let Sinclair Petrochemicals, Inc., provide you with technical assistance to use these resins to improve your prod­ uct, or research assistance to develop still newer products. Contact:

Brown & Root is tough on... * ï ' ) ί '»

Brown & Root! When a Brown & Root job is completed it will pass anyone's white glove inspection. After 50 years in the business we have long since found it's best to do things right the first time. This way you save time, money and . . . reputation. A Brown & Root takes full responsibility for its jobs. We rarely sub-let portions of a project. This cuts off the time-honored practice of passing the buck in case of failures, but we prefer it that way. A We always strive to be "ahead of schedule and below the estimate." This is why we have so much repeat business. We will be happy to discuss your project, with no obligation, of course.

The Third Caribbean Chemical Symposium will be held in Caracas, Venezuela, Jan. 4 to 9. The meeting will feature a series of plenary lectures by invited eminent speakers, and sessions of other papers under the headings of analytical, inorganic, organic, and physical chemistry and biochemistry. If enough papers are received in a more specialized field—for example, natural products, mechanisms, polymer chemistry, or radiochemistry— these will be grouped into separate sessions. Abstracts of papers will be available to participants at the time of registration. Official languages of the symposium will be Spanish and English. Write the Secretary, Third Caribbean Chemical Symposium, Department of Chemistry, IVIC, Apartado 1827, Caracas, Venezuela, for further details. CALENDAR OF EVENTS

The Properties and Uses of Plasma is the subject of a conference to be held July 19 to 21, 1965, in Moscow, U.S.S.R. Sponsor is the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry. The program of technical papers will be roughly divided into the physics and chemistry of plasma and the potential ways in which plasma can serve mankind. Titles of proposed papers should be received by the corresponding secretary for one's country by Dec.

15, abstracts by Feb. 1, and final papers by May 15. The corresponding secretary for the U.S. is Dr. E. S. Starkman, College of Engineering, University of California, Berkeley, Calif. Scope of the papers is intended to cover plasma above the normal flame temperature range so that for the purposes of the conference a working definition of plasma would be when there is substantial ionization, for example more than 1%.
