Special attention should be paid to Mr. Oertling's comments on detailed calculation of the remaining vehicles so that an in telligent reformulation Job may be done. The present status of a metallising basecoat and topcoat is discussed. The work on clear pipe coating vehicles, as veil as a label coating varnish is also reported. Mr. Seguin reports for Industrial Laboratory $2 a Pink Primer Surfacer, GL-699IQA formulated for Hillenbrand Associates, of which a ten-drum shipment has been made. Two Red Cbdde Primer samples, one of which contained our Rustmaster liquid and the other being the regular, was submitted to Stran Steel for their evaluation and approval. The potential business volume of this material if approved will run ap proximately 60,000 gallons annually. The Industrial Metal Snulsion Laboratory's report by Mr. Rueeke states that our Underbody Dipping Primer, XM 59867, was approved by Chrysler after successful salt spray resistance tests. He has also reported on our exterior automotive enamel program work to date. Special note should be made of this laboratory's work on the use of amines in emulsions or solution systems with regards to color and cure. Mr. Metzger's report for the Non-Metal Emulsion laboratory relates the formulation of an emulsion finish coat for use on baseball. bats. Industrial Maintenance laboratory's report by Mr. Hood gives the conclusions of our wetting oil primer test where two pre-rusted and two cold rolled steel panels were used. None of the competitive primers tested came close to matching the Glid- den materials in any of the specific tests. /; Mr. Throne's report for the PolyeBter Laboratory shows the work involved in reform ulation of Glidpol 1017 to employ a vinyl toluene resin. This work was undertaken for the development of a flooring compound for United States Stoneware Company. A clear polyester resin was formulated for the D.E.K. Manufacturing Company having an extended gel time. Mr. Southwick's section of the Trade Products laboratory report describes his work on determining the cause of seeding in Japalac Y-1217* It should also be noted that the entire Japalac line has been changed to lead-free pigmentations except for Black Japalac Y-1207 The Speedenamel line is presently being revised to im prove our standard farm and implement colors. The Spred Products section of this report states the development of an emulsion-type lawn paint, XM 590hk. The de velopment of this material was required in order to meet competitive ("Green Stuff") lawn paint being marketed by Krleger Color ana Chemical Company. This type finish is primarily being sold in dry areas Buch as Texas. A report on com parative tests of various spackling compounds versus our Spred Patch is also re ported. T. A. KEUHAUS is GLD37383 PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT REPORT IINDUSTRIAL MAINTENANCE LABORATORY JURE 1959 C-8 WETTING OIL PRIMER TEST Tvo pre-rusted and two cold rolled steel panels were prepared. One of each type steel was exposed in salt spray,***and one of each type was exposed in humidity. ?* The following is the summary and conclusions of those tests. Conclusions: 1. In general, the vetting oils improve the properties of the materials tested. In some instances the improvement is slight; in others it is quite narked. 2. The best example of the improvement in a specification material is in the Shell Oil formulations GL-67187 with no wetting oil, and GL-70211 with CH-358. 3. The 894-6, as compared to CH-358 could be considered an equal from these tests; how ever, more extensive work would have to be done comparing the two wetting oils in a variety of vehicles before it could be used as a substitute for CH-358. \ 4. None of the competitive primers come close to matching the Glidden materials. 5. GL-69I+71-D Red Lead Alkyd-Phenolie with vetting oil was prepared in a conventional peb 1 ble mill grind and also was prepared by high speed agitation with no pebble mill grind j It is noted that the material made by agitation performed slightly better than the peb ble mill grind. -T--e-n----B--e--s--t---O---v--e--r-a--l-l---M---a--t-e--r--ia---ls----i-n-----O---r-d--e--r: 1.

It has been pretty veil determined that the seeding is caused by a reaction of zinc oxide and the saturated fatty acids of soya oil under certain conditions. From our testing we arrived at the following conclusions: 1. Zinc oxide and water must be present to obtain seeds. 2. High acid V-869 shows more seeding than low acid V-869. 3. Aging and temperature change accelerates seeding. 4. Bentone has no effect on seeding. 5. There probably is a relationship between poor dry and seeding. We were not able to produce seeds on every grind of V-869 or GRV-3191; however, when water was introduced to these grinds seeding always occurred. The higher the acid number of the alkyd, the bigger and more plentiful were the seeds. It made no difference if the water was added to the bentone, zinc oxide or other pigments, or whether the water was added to the alkyd. In all cases with water present seeds were produced. We also noted that when seeds were produced, the paint lost much of its drying properties. It is an opinion that much of our water enters our paints through condensation in our S-43 tanks as it does in every type of gasoline or other solvent storage units. Speedenamel Colors -- The Speedenamel line is being revised to include standard farm and implement colors. John Deere and International Red will replace Y-4555 Garnet Red. Deep Green, Y-4553 will be replaced by John Deere Green. Caterpillar Yellow will be added. School Bus Yellow will be shown on the card as an intermix. Allis Chalmers Orange will be added. A decision to make John Deere Yellow an inter,mix instead of a ready mix color has been made recently. Medium Gray Y-4562 will be altered slightly to match 7B Standard Machine Gray. Production on these colors will start in August or September. Silicone Enamel -- GL-70535 Silicone Marine Enamel has been made and shipped to all regions for comment and testing. We will be waiting your comments. Japalac Lead-Free Color Changes -- The entire line has been changed to lead-free pigmentations, excepting the Black, Y-1207. Some colors such as Y-1252 Orange, Y-1230 Golden Yellow, Y-1254 Empire Green will be dropped from the line. Y-1270 Lemon Yellow and Y-1271 Greenbriar have been added to the line because they are more economical than the lead-free version of Y-1230 and Y-1254. It was felt that Orange was not needed since it is now available in the Speedenamel line. Japalac Spray Enamel (Aerosol) -- Work has begun to make our aerosol line lead-: free. Y-4551-C Speedenamel has already been approved for the Black. The greens and yellows will be changed to lead-free pigmentation similar to Y-1212, Y-1270, Y-1271 in the Japalac line. The Vermillion Red, Y-4006, must also be changed. J. E. Southwick JES/lms 7/3/59 GU>3^86 PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT. REPORT SAN FRANCISCO. JUNE, 1959 - GL3DPOL SECTION - Oronite Chemical Company, in their efforts to find uses for isophthalic acid, approached the Glidden Company on the possibility of making exterior tank coatings using isophthalic polyesters, Oronite assured us that any coating that looked promising would be field tested on an oil storage tank at the Richmond, California refinery of Standard Oil of California, The following coatings were developed; and with the urging of Oronite, we made 25 gallons of each coating.
