/ ? INTER-OFFICE: CORRESPONDENCE Et h y l Ga s o l in e Co r p o r a t io n Ch r y s l e r Bu il d in g -105 Le x in g t o n Av e n u e Ne w Yo r k May 11, 1937 Dr. Robert A. Kehoe My dear Bob: The enclosed advertisement reminds me of the fact that during the last couple of years at least two synthetic products of rubber-like characteristics have been developed which are much more resistant to gasoline and oil than ordinary rubber. These are ''Neoprene", the synthetic rubber developed by the duPont Company and ''Thiokol". It occurs to me that it might be well to investigate these substances for use in rubber protective equipment in connection with the handling of tetraethyl lead. Conceivably, they might be far superior to ordinary rubber. g e /l r j KE" 0022434 ...IT WILL PAY TO PUT THEM ON Now you can order work gloves that are completely resistant to grease, oils and acids! These new gloves made by Pioneer Rubber Company wear, longer...provide a better grip... are cooler in summer and warmer in winter. They have cut glove replacement costs in every instance where they have been used. The Pioneer glove was developed through the use of a new form of syn thetic rubber--the completely oil-resist ing synthetic rubber sold under the trade-mark "Thiokol"*, available as a coating material, as a molding powder, and as a crude. Manufacturers have found that their customers appreciate the extra quality of products made with "Thiokol" rubber. Investigate the possibilities of making your products oil-proof.
