materials, for the particles are so small, averaging one-eight-hundred-millionth of an inch in diameter, that a single cubic inch of the stuff, if spread one particle thick, would cover a field 200 feet long and 170 feet wide.
The new method obtains 30 pounds of carbon black from 1000 cubic feet of gas; where present industrial methods recover only from one-half to two pounds. The explosion also ties in with a chance to reduce the serious wartime shortage of chlorine.
Chlorine, a green gas sometimes called the Green Goddess, is a familiar war gas, city water and swimming pool purifier. It has been used for colds. It is one of the essential war chemicals. Chlorine is used in hundreds of chemical processes and these are so essential that chlorine is rationed.
Carbon black is used in making tires. It doubles the length of time a tire will wear. Carbon black is also used for water and sugar purification in the form of activated carbon. It is one of industry's most interesting
The new process was developed by Dr. George W. Stratton, professor of chemistry and Delos E. Winkler, now a research chemist for the Shell Petroleum Co., at Evansville, Cal.
