Edward J. Kleber to R. Terrence McCabe (Interplastic) Enclosing the RG-244 Viscosity Test Procedure (1976)

Letter from Union Carbide's Midwest Sales representative to a contact at Interplastic Corporation enclosing, at his request, the procedure used to determine the viscosity of Calidria grade RG-244. The letter says Rohm & Haas P-43 resin had been used since 1967 and that Union Carbide planned to reevaluate its standards, probably in 1977. The enclosed 'Determination of Viscosity' procedure lists apparatus and steps for mixing a sample into polyester resin and measuring viscosity with a Brookfield viscometer.
