Technical service report on a July 25, 1968 paper machine trial of Union Carbide's Asbestos T-135 as a partial replacement for titanium dioxide at the Brown Company mill in Holyoke, Massachusetts. It reports that opacity was maintained but brightness fell because T-135 reduced the efficiency of the optical brightener, so added dye cost more than the titanium dioxide saved. It includes analysis tables, a mill trial data sheet, a distribution list and a September 10, 1968 cover note.
