NEW KIND OF FEED BAG is this big "pillow tank" of nylon fabric coated with CHÉMIGUM. It holds 10,000 gallons of volatile fuel, yet can be carried in a small chest, rolled out like a rug, filled in minutes—anywhere.

"SUB" THAT'S NOW FIRST STRING is this basketball with cover of PLIOFLEX reinforced by PLIOLITE S-6B. It looks, feels, acts like leather, but is much more wear-, water- and scufr-resistant—lower in cost.

Each of the products pictured here has successfully met the test of today's competitive market. But theie's no secret to this success. It stems from the simple fact that their manufacturers availed them­selves of the new materials and services offered by the newly formed Rubber & Rubber Chemicals Department of the Goodyear Chemical Division.

The materials offered include two families of general-purpose styrene-butadiene polymers— PLIOFLEX Rubbers and PLIOLITE Rubber Latices. For oil-resistant applications, the CHEMIGUM

Rubbers offer a range in both nitrile content and propert ies. For rubber reinforcement, there's

PLIOLITE S-6B, a high-styrene resin. In non-stain­ing antioxidants, WING-STAY S is the first of a line of job-designed rubber chemicals.

"Job-designed" aptly describes all of the materials supplied by the Rubber & Rubber Chemicals Department. As a matter of policy, they all were specifically developed to meet specific needs. And since proper application is essential to their advan­tageous use, it is also a matter of policy that their sale be accompanied by complete technical service.

Recognition of the need for thorough technical service was the basic reason for establishing the

COLORFUL COASTERS that stay bright and flexible are made of foamed PLIOLITE LATEX protected with WING-STAY S. They keep their "just bought" look and absorbency despite exposure to water, sunlight or repeated washings.

CHEERFUL HELPERS AROUND THE HOME are mats, strainers and other house­wares of styrene rubber reinforced with PLIOLITE S-6B. The resin imparts toughness, rigidity and smoothness— adds to wear-, oil- and water-resistance.

PUTTING THE LIFT IN LIFT TRUCKS calls for tough, oil-resistant rings and seals in hoist and tilt rams. CHEMIGUM plus PLIOLITE S-ώΒ gives the hardness, smoothness, strength and dimensional stability required.

LASTING ELASTICITY, STRENGTH AND SOFTNESS are essential in surgeons' gloves. Heat- and water-resistant WING-STAY S does much to help the natural rubber retain its original properties, despite repeated sterilization.
