AND DETERGENTS - INDEX - Preface - Presented in this book are
quantities of data, gathered during many years in my practice of
chemistry, either as resident chemist in manufacturing plants, or
as a consultant to the soap and related industries. The style is
didactic and such that it may readily be understood by
non-technical personnel. Involved theoretical and technical
discussions have been avoided. As far as possible, references have
been included at the end of each chapter. Although much of the
information contained in this work is well within my own
experience, much of it has been gleaned also from manufacturers'
technical bulletins or through private correspondence. Many patents
have been cited, merely as examples of products discussed; this is
not to be construed as recommending the infringement of any such
patents. The various formulations are presented in good faith, but
no warranty is given, nor is freedom from any patent to be
inferred. With a little ingenuity on the part of the reader, many
useful and efficient products may be made along the lines
discussed, without in any way infringing on patented products.
Because of numerous factors affecting results, all the formulations
cited herein, although believed to be reliable (most of them having
emanated from the greatest laboratories in the world) should be
tested thoroughly. It is especially recommended that manufacturers
make their own tests to determine the suitability of the
formulations, for the specific applications intended. I am indebted
to the manufacturers of the many chemicals named in the book, for
information which I gathered either from direct correspondence or
from their technical bulletins; also for their many samples with
which I compounded some of the formulas. Special mention should be
made of those companies that supplied photographs of equipment and
installations depicting various processes. I have tried to include
all information pertinent to each formula, and credit has been
given to all identified suppliers, so that additional information,
if needed, may be obtained from the manufacturers of the basic
materials used. Finally, I am grateful to the publishers for
valuable assistance in the organization and presentation of my
quantities of material which now comes out as not merely a second
edition of my Oil, Fat, and Soap, but as a much more comprehensive
new book.|CONTENTS - 1. AEROSOLS - 2. BACTERICIDES-FUNGICIDES -
