You see a corrugated box. We see polymer science.
Inside and out, a simple corrugated box represents advances in industrial starches and adhesives. From the specialty starch that adheres the fluting to the liner board, to the hot melt that seals the cases, National's polymer chemistry is at work. But the box is only part of a story that begins with amphoteric and cationic starches basic to the papermaking process. National's polymers are at work here as wet end additives, retention aids and coatings. Since we know what goes into cases, we know what it takes to seal them shut, from liquid adhesives to hot melts. With over 1,000 patents, 6,700 employees and 100 facilities worldwide, we can put polymer science to work for you. Write or call National Starch and Chemical Corporation, Finderne Avenue, Bridgewater, NJ 08807. (201) 685-5000.
