What's new with Aluminum Alkyls?

GROWTH! We have expanded and will continue to expand to meet the needs of industry. What else? Improved quality control. New analytical procedures. A higher quality, more uniform product for your application. Expanded product lines for new commercial uses, and new areas of possible interest to you. One specific area is with DIBAL-H (diisobutylaluminum hydride). Originally intended as a polyolefin catalyst, DIBAL-H is rapidly developing as a

reducing agent for the chemical industry, particularly pharmaceuticals. It's efficient, low-cost, easy to use and available for volume applications. This liquid material is capable of selectively reducing many organic compounds. Be sure to get a copy of our DIBAL-H Bulletin. Use the coupon. If you are in the area of rubber chemistry, we're happy to tell you DE AI (diethylaluminum iodide) is now available in commercial quantities.

ALUMINUM ALKYLS ROUNDUP APPLICATIONS Polyolefin Catalysts: For the production of polypropylene, polyethylene, polybutadiene, polyisoprene, ethylene-propylene polymers, and other olefin and diene polymers. Straight-chain Alcohols and Alpha Olefins: Intermediates for making primary straight-chain compounds. Pyrophoric Fuels: Efficient self-igniting fuels for use in rockets and missiles.

growth reactions, olefin displacement, oxidation and hydrolysis, formation of complex salts, as alkylation agents, and as reducing agents for organic functional groups. HOMOLOGS: Various homologs of the commercial and development Aluminum Alkyls can be prepared in research quantities on special request. Inquiries for specific Aluminum Alkyls are welcome for discussion on availability, purity, and price.

Aluminum Plating : As a source of aluminum in a versatile new chemical-vapor-deposition process for aluminum coating a variety of materials.

TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE: Special safety and handling techniques have been developed to minimize hazards involved in the use of Aluminum Alkyls. TEXAS ALKYLS, INC. is pleased to offer technical and engineering consultation and to show you our facilities. We'll gladly lend you a 30-minute, 16-mm, sound, color film on safe handling of Aluminum Alkyls.
