Tougher products for the surfers...thanks to

AMOCO IPA.

Surfs up. And that board's going to take some pretty hard knocks. Happily, Isophthalic Acid (IPA) from Amoco Chemicals is on the job. IPA polyesters made with AMOCO IPA can make your products tougher, too. They'll resist cracking, crazing, fracture. Provide impact strength, and better tensile and flex strength. Where else is IPA? Try bowling balls, automotive parts, serving trays. IPA polyesters also provide good resistance to chemicals. They're used in chemical resistant tanks and in linings for petroleum storage tanks. Think tough. Ask your resin supplier about A M O C O IPA—or write us. Amoco Chemicals Corporation, Department 8 9 0 7 - 1 , 130 East Randolph Drive, Chicago, Illinois 6 0 6 0 1 .
