All the seal-works batehes were msde according to K-2153, with no ohanges except to add the PGAHSA to eauotio soda* Plant batehes wars also made aseerding to K-2153, but at 0*9 sol to fit available equipment* Variations were mods in the amount sf eauatie soda used to dissolve tho BOH, in order te control tho pS after oeupling to that specified in K-2153* Be formal variable study was run, and the available results were confused by inadequacy of the alkyd test which wae weed for evaluation* Ho true evaluation was obtained for seat sf the early batehes* The plant formula K-2287 incorporates only a few ohanges from K2153, namely, the cut in batch site, the inore&se in caustic soda for coupling, and the adoption of plant manipulations* Details of all tho batehes oan be found in B88-46-47* DUP050150133 -2' Formula BT-533** **2287, and notoe.
