PROCESSES FOR THE USE OF 'AMAX' MINERAL RUBBER. 



Recognizing the importance of submitting their "Amax" 

 mineral rubber to the test of practical use, and of thus demon- 

 strating its properties, the -American Wax Co., of Boston, has 

 published a concise and interesting booklet in German. It con- 

 tains full explanations and instructions; its value being increased 

 by a number of recipes for the various compounds in which 

 "Amax" can be used in the manufacture of solid tires, motor- 

 truck and automobile tires, hoof pads, heels, wagon covers, bicycle 

 tires, valves, mats, etc. 



.\ carefully written introduction enunciates the properties of 

 ".Amax," showing that it is 99.84 per cent, pure, is not porous 

 and is easily worked ; so that a large portion of the elasticity of 

 the crude rubber is preserved, which would otherwise be lost 

 through the admixture of dry coloring substances. On the 

 contrary the strength of the vulcanized product is materially in- 

 creased by the use of "Amax." 



This useful booklet has been compiled by Mr. W. C. Coleman, 

 general manager, and forms a valuable feature of the export 

 propaganda in which the company is so actively engaged. It is 

 contemplated to reproduce this booklet in English, which will 

 materially enlarge the scope of its influence.
