'/i)W TO "BUILD IN" HIGH RESISTANCE TO / FIRE AND CHEMICALS WITH LOW-COST AROCLOR ' PLASTICIZERS AND RESIN EXTENDERS
AROCLOR chlorinated polyplienyls--liquid or solid --offer remarkable inertness. They don't burn, evap orate, hydrolyze, or oxidize. They defy strong acids and alkalies.'They blend readily with nearly all resins, solvents, plasticizers, and other plastics-compounding
ingredients. You can choose from 13 standard AROCLORS--to impart outstanding flame retardance, chemical resistance, and other desired proper ties to your plastics compounds and protective coat
ings ... at tow cost.
NONBURNING EPOXIES
Aroclors are fully compatible with epoxy resins. Combined with a small amount of antimony oxide,
they produce nonburn ing compositions. Aroclor 5460 yields epoxies with optimum compressive strength.
Aroclor 1221 greatly improves flexibility.

EXTENDERS FOR PVC
Aroclors arc especially effective as secondary plas ticizers or extenders for polyvinyl chloride. Aroclor 1262, used 1:3 with dioctyl phthalate, sharply re duces migration to nitrocellulose lacquers. All Aroclor compounds can be used to improve the chemical resistance of vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate coating formulations.

SELF-EXTINGUISHING POLYETHYLENE Aroclor 5460 gives self-extinguishing, low-density
polyethylene with minimum effect on tensile strength or "memory." Aroclor 5460 substantially improves heat stability, too, compared with other common flame retardants.
