MANUFACTURING PROCEDURE In normal manner used for manufacture of joint compound except a cleanout charge of carbonate filler must be run before the manufacture of Durabond. Even small amounts of casein joint compound will severely contaminate the Durabond compound. A pre-blend of retarders must be made which consists of 12 parts of Oakfield Commercial Retarder and 8 parts of Citric Acid (Konohydrate). This blend is then used to adjust the set time of the batch.

A pre-blend at retarders must be made which consists of 12 parts of Oahfleld Commercial Retarder and 8 parts of Citric Acid (Monohydrate). This blend is then used to adjust the set time of the batch.
The set time of Durabond must be checked at both 90-95F and 4o-45F whenever a new batch of retarder is vised. The set time shall not vary more than 30 minutes between 40 and 90^F. If the set time at 90 is excessively long, the amount of Citric acid in the retarder blend must be Increased. If the set time at 40F is long, this shows that there is excessive citric acid in the retarder blend. The set time values are to be shown an the production control reports along with an indication when the new batch of retarder blend is used.
This is a rejection specification for the retarder blend.

MANUFACTURING PROCEDURE
'
In normal manner used for manufacture of joint compound except a cleanout charge
of carbonate filler must be run before the manufacture of Durabond. Even small
amounts of casein joint compound will severely contaminate the Durabond compound.
A pre-blend of Oakfield Connercial Retarder and Citric Acid must be used to con trol the setting time. The setting time must be checked at both 90-95F and 40-45F whenever a new batch of retarder is used to determine the proportions to be used in the retarder blend. The set time shall not vary more than 30 minutes between 40 and 90F. If the setting time at 90 is excessively long, the amount of Citric acid in the retarder blend must be increased. If the setting time t
4r 40F is long, there is excessive Citric acid in the retarder blend.
- The recommended initial blend is 2 parts of Oakfield Commercial Retarder (250$ Eff.) to 1 part Citric acid (Monohydrate) by weight. The setting time values are to be shown on the production control reports along with the date the currsn retarder blend was first put into use, the Oakfield Retarder code markings and
efficiency, and the proportions of retarder and Citric acid in the blend.
This is a rejection specification for the retarder blend.

MANUFACTURING PROCEDURE
In normal manner used for manufacture of joint compound except a cleanout charge of carbonate filler must be run before the manufacture of Durabond. Even small amounts of casein Joint compound will severely contaminate the Durabond compound.
A pre-blend of Oakfield Commercial Retarder and Citric Acid must be used to control the setting time. The setting time must be checked at both 90-95F and 40-J*5F whenever a new batch of retarder is used to determine the proport ions to be used in the retarder blend. The set time shall not vary more than 30 minutes between 40 and 90F. If the setting time at 90 is excessively long, the amount of Citric acid in the retarder blend must be Increased. If the setting time at 40^ is long, there is excessive Citric add in the re
tarder blend.

Eff.) to 1 part Citric add (Monohydrate) by weight. The setting time values
are to be shown on the production control reports along with the date the
current retarder blend was first put into use, the Oakfield Retarder code
markings and efficiency, and the proportions of retarder and Citric add in
the blend.
