...Chilean nitrate is superior to synthetic because of its high iodine content. Other distinctions between the two are of little commercial import. Hence competition is largely a matter of price, which in turn depends on production costs. So far nitrogen fixation plants like that of the Allied Chemical and Dye Corp. at Hopewell, Va., have been able to make nitrate more economically than it can be dug out of the Chilean plateau...
...nitrates. Frantically, the producers association played with price-fixing, abandoned it, watched the synthetic competition mount, in Germany, in the U. S., until in 1929 Chile provided only 25% of the world production of all forms of nitrates. A new threat loomed at Hopewell, Va., where Allied Chemical & Dye Corp. has built a vast nitrogen fixation plant which might in time outstrip even the I. G. Farben. The industry was overproduced. A long monopoly had been broken; the effects were manifest throughout the entire structure of Chilean economics. Last week, in Paris, form was given to the most recent, most...
...scale (though not highest in specific gravity) is uranium,? a metal which has been virtually impossible to isolate. So-called ''pure" uranium is almost always contaminated with oxides. This contaminated material and salts of the metal are used in the ceramic industry, to produce high-speed steels, in dye manufacture...
...corporation i, Standard of New Jersey, Rockefeller jewel; the process is the manufacture of gasoline by hydrogenation (the combination of hydrogen with carbon to form the gasoline hydro carbon). The process is jointly owned by Standard of New Jersey and the I. G". Farbenindustrie, commonly known as the German Dye Trust. Standard and I. G. Farbenindustrie have planned to organize a subsidiary company which will pay them a royalty for the U. S. rights to the process and will in turn distribute the patent rights to all U. S. oil companies which Standard considers able to "make a commercial...
...Daytona Beach. Samuel Edward Sheppard, 47, Assistant Director of the Eastman Kodak Research Laboratories, a scientist so precise that he frequently lies prone to sight for his golf putts, last week received in Manhattan the gold medal which the late Chairman William Henry Nichols of Allied Chemical & Dye Corp. created. In accepting, Dr. Sheppard, who often utters startling truths, declared that in many fields pure science has become stagnant, will ultimately become extinct unless lively technology goes...
