A ten-page Business Confidential project report (project 342A25, supervisor P. L. Smith) comparing Union Carbide's silica-treated asbestos product R-G244 with CAB-O-SIL M-5 as a thixotropic thickener in a general purpose polyester. It reports viscosity, viscosity recovery after shear, glycerol effect and gel-test activity, with three tables and two figures. It concludes R-G244 is more effective and cheaper, and estimates a potential annual polyester market of 0.5-1.0 MM pounds.
