Inflatable pools have become big business, both in size and quan­tity. Where once only toddlers could enjoy them, now, through improved design and materials, whole families can take a cooling plunge—and many do !

One of the materials now used in these big, low-cost pools is PLIOVIC. PLIOVIC is the name for a series of easy-processing, high-quality vinyl resins, each designed to do a specific job. For instance, one type of PLIOVIC is ideally suited to calendering the heavy-gauge sheeting for the walls and rims of pools, while another can be used to advantage in dispersions for protecting the fabric bottoms and

steel wire wall supports. Both achieve the essential physical proper t ies with a m i n i m u m of processing and cost

problems. Details, plus the latest Tech Book Bulletins on

how you can profit with PLIOVIC for pools, or a n y of the many applicat ions for versat i le

vinyl resins, are yours by writing to : Goodyear, Chemical Division, Dept. R-9416, Akron 16, Ohio.
