This compound can l>e used to control peach-tree borers .. . acts as an efficient deodorant ... is a useful intermediate in the production of dye stuffs. .. aids in mildew control. A novel use is in the manufacture of products, such as abrasive wheels, which require a porous structure with rather uniform interstices. Orthodiclilorobenzene Gives Excellent Industrial Performance On Many Jobs Orthodiclilorobenzene is now available from Monsanto, toady and waiting to perform coundcss important tasks for all industry. This versatile compound possesses such a wide range of chemical and physical properties that it has virtually become a standard product in dozens of fields. It is insecticidal in nature, possesses high solvent properties and low toxicity. This combination has made it an important product for chemical processing and consumer product industries. Weed killing, for example, is a field where orthodiclilorobenzene has proved its effectiveness. Water narcissus and similar underwater vegetation quickly succumb to this chemical. Heavier than water, the liquid settles to the bottom and envelops vital parts of the water weeds. Dry cleaning is another use for ortho* diclilorobcn/cne. Here the high solvent power and slow evaporation rate of the compound make it an effective "spot ting agent." "Ortho" is also used ns a machine shop solvent. It is particularly effective in this application because it has high sol vency and a very low order of toxicity. In addition, Monsanto ortliodichloro* benzene can be used as a vehicle for car rying pigments in leather dyeing ... as a substitute for benzene in paint ami varnish removers ... as a component of shoe polishes. 11 is also used in metal jx>lishrs.wool scouring, gas purification, and in scores of other industrial applications. '"Spray-on" Balm Makes Tape Adhere Better, Cuts Irritation "Spray-on" medicated dressings and balms applied directly from acrosol-tvpe pressure containers are now available. One example is "Adhesive Balm Spray" made by Larson Laboratories, Erie, Pa. This balm makes adhesive tape and plastic dressings adhere better and come off without irritation. This balm also acts as an antiseptic reducing adhesive dermatitis. In the formulation of such plastic sprays Monsanto plasticizers are an effective means of insuring exactly the right amount of plasticity desired for most efficient use. Monsanto nonloxic plas ticizers have already proved their worth in plastic food wraps developed to pro tect fruit, vegetables and fish. If you have a problem of this nature, write us. Monsanto is ready to help you with one of the largest, most complete lines of plasticizers. For information, send in the coupon. Para-dicfilorobenzene Shows Vorsatility In Many Applications An old friend of the chemical industry, para-dichlorobcnzenc is more versatile than many chemical producers realize. It is, of course, best known for its effec tiveness against moths and larvae and has established a long record of success against these pests. Regardless of use, you'll find that paradichlorobcnzenc made by Monsanto un der the name Santochlor* has a quality and purity that's hard to beat. Santo chlor is available in a wide variety of crystal sizes: No. 1, approximately $4* inch pellets; No. 0, approximately yi,inch pellets; N'o. 34, approximately ricesize granules; blocking mix, a mixture of sizes under 7-mcsh; fines, a mixture of sizes less than 16-mesh.

New Silverware Cleaners Use Thiourea to Cut Tarnish The family silverware will be looking cleaner and brighter than ever -- and with a lot less work, thanks to new-type cleaning compounds now going on the market. With these cleaners, removing tarnish is virtually a "dip and rinse" proposition. So effective arc the new compounds, that several firms arc now offering this kind of product. Key to cleaning effectiveness is thiourea. This chemical reacts with the tarnish (silver sulfide) and forms a soluble com plex, almost immediately. To promote thorough contact between solution and silverware, a wetting agent is generally added. When the silverware is removed from solution the tarnish is gone. To aid manufacturers in this market, Monsanto makes a high grade of thio urea and produces a complete line of welting agents.
