There is hardly any technical library in the world in which the
volumes of the Chemical Formulary (Volumes 1-34) do not occupy a
prominent place. Chemists both experienced and beginner,
continually refer to them. It does not duplicate any of the
formulas included in previous volumes, but lists a wide array of
modern and salable products from all branches of the chemical
industries. An excellent reference for formulation problems.

taught in our schools and colleges, concerns chiefly synthesis,
analysis, and engineering-and properly so. It is part of the right
foundation for the education of the chemist. Many a chemist
entering an Industry soon finds that most of the products
manufactured by his concern are not synthetic or definite complex
compounds, but are mixtures, blends, or highly complex compounds of
which he knows little or nothing. The literature in this field, if
any, may be meager, scattered, or obsolete. Even chemists with
years of experience In one or more Industries spend considerable
time and effort in acquainting themselves with any new field which
they may enter. Consulting chemists similarly have to solve
problems brought to them from industries foreign to them. There was
a definite need for an up-to-date compilation of formulae for
chemical compounding and treatment. Since the fields to be covered
are many and varied, an editorial board of chemists and engineers
engaged in many industries was formed. Many publications,
laboratories, manufacturing firms, and Individuals have been
consulted to obtain the latest and best information. It is felt
that the formulas given in this volume will save chemists and
allied workers much time and effort. Manufacturers and sellers of
chemicals will find, In these formulae, new uses for their
products. Non-chemical executives, professional men, and Interested
laymen will make through this volume a "speaking acquaintance" with
products which they may be using, trying or selling. It often
happens that two Individuals using the same Ingredients in the same
formula get different results. This may be due to slight deviations
in the raw materials or unfamiliarity with the intricacies of a new
technique. Accordingly, repeated experiments may be necessary to
get the best results. Although many of the formulas given are being
used commercially, many have been taken from the literature and may
be subject to various errors and omissions. This should be taken
into consideration. Wherever possible, it is advisable to consult
with other chemists or technical workers regarding commercial
production.
