List
Attached is a revised raw material specification for lauroyl peroxide. Cadet LPO (Noury Chemicals) has been added to the approved supplier list. Lucidol has been previously re approved.
The approval of the Noury initiator is based on an extensive Quality Control Laboratory evaluation and not on plant pro cess evaluation. Process problems are not anticipated, how ever, Purchasing has been requested to order the initiator only for Burlington initially to confirm proper plant perfor mance .
This revised specification supersedes the issue dated June, 1971. Please delete the obsolete copy and insert the revised one in Section 3 of your Quality Control Manuals.
