A one-page undated typed letter from Degussa, France to SACI says Degussa's thickening agent A 28 was found noxious and probably subject to cancer, that Degussa would stop selling it, and that Aerosil products would replace it. It is followed by a January 5, 1972 Union Carbide letter from J. W. Rawlings to Dr. Milton Stern reporting that the new W. R. Grace distributor agreement for RG-244 and RG-144 was executed, and that the termination with Degussa was not going smoothly because of Degussa's statements to customers about asbestos toxicology.
