FROM PAPER, A PAYOFF: OLD PRODUCT GETS N E W FACE WITH PHENOLIC RESIN PAPER THAT ACID CAN'T EAT Paper in a storage battery—why not? Many batteries nowadays have separators of paper—impregnated with a Durez phenolic resin. They're rigid, non-warping—and inert to battery acid. PAPER THAT STRAINS OIL In millions of filter units for cars, porous paper—stiffened with Durez resin—keeps engine oil clean without becoming oil-soaked itself. Heat under the hood can't bother this resin. PAPER THAT S T A N D S UP TO STEAM Used as bobbins, these paper tubes must come through countless steamings—without deforming and without discoloring the thread. Durez resin in the paper adds the needed pinch of permanence. What profile do you tvant to give to paper (or cloth, pulp, almost anything fibrous) ? For hard, stiff laminates that run the gamut of mechanical and electrical properties, try low-cost phenolic resin. Here at Durez we have hundreds of standard resins to choose from. Lots of experience in how to apply them, too. If you'd like to know more, write for free 12-page general bulletin, "Durez Industrial Resins."
