In th* lt f*v ytr* tbe trend in a*l priser peint* for entasoblles mi other Industrial product* ha* been svay free the old solvent-thinned
to paints having vt*r-reducible vehicle*. Reasons are **r*ral, but *ort Important 1* to reduce fire and explcelco hazard* and alo, particularly vlth automobile*, the paint goe* 00 and stay* 00 Bore evenly under th* design ad production caodltlan* Involved.
The paint Industry had a OBpr*hen*lv* knowledge of th* farBulatlan, application and performance of th* old typ* prlaer* and th* compatibility of lead plgaanta vlth then. Bemerer, the aov prlaer* involve aa entirely nev techaoloQr and It va* necessary to find cut whether lead plgaenta are ccnpatlble vlth the new vehicle*, hov to formulate lead plfBent* vlth the aev vehicle*, and vhat hind of perforaanoe to expact.
Consequently, the International Lead Zinc Research Organization placed a centred acveral year* ago vlth Bm Eogle-Flcber Ccapany to rtudy the** proxies*. Vorfc ha* now reached a point vbere the aatlefactory perfaraanc* of a tn.B-.ber of lead plgaeat* ha* been deaanetrated. These pignut* Include both older type*, Hie red lead, vnit* lead and baalc lead chroBate, a* veil a* never pigaect*, llhe the illcate, elllco-chrrmet a ad cyaaat*.
It Bust be eephaelzed that In theae nev formulation* the concentra tion of lead i* ouch lever than In nor* conventional prlaer*, auch aa the red lead-linseed oil type*. Tbe nev concentration* are In th* neighborhood of one-half pound cf lead per gallon a* compared vlth 10 or 20 lb. per gallon in *oae of the older types. however, they are alaad at capturing aarketa in vhleb little or no lead pigment* are now used, sinoe they are baaed finishes applied by dipping on Industrial product* like autacobil* bodice, air-conditioning housing*, rteel kitchen cabinet* and appliance* rether than on structural rteel vbere aoet of the older lead paint* are used.
Any ertlaete of tbe potential market 1* difficult. To get sem* idea, based on lj gal. at paint per automobile at { lb. lead per gallon, 1,000,000 cars per year vould conauae 375 ton* of lead, or If used on the entire automofcll* production of, say, 8,000,000 cars, a total of 3*000 ton*. This Bake* no allowance for use on other Bass-produced nrtal product* a* previously aentloned, and all thea* vculd be aloovt entirely nev aerketa.
ILZRO ha* arranged far publication later thl* year at a ruaaary of the vork to dat* prepared by the research cccrtrector, of tdiicb ve Intend to purchase reprints, and Individual repre*entatlona vlll be Bede to the autcmobil* cocpanie*. The data ha* also been Bade avallabla to L.I.A. for use In advertising and publicity. A* a result an ad 1* appearing cs a part cf cur regulnr esrpeign in the paint aegr.tines (see reprint attached). So b* Inquiries are already being received. Consideration Bight also be given to getting the story before other nanufacturer* of Betal product*, for exanple, Ratlcnal lead Co. recently featured dip coating vlth basic lead il!co-chrc*sat* voter-based prlaer* In "Busin*** Week,* th* ad picturing dip coating of alr-condltlcner housing*.
