THE INDIA RUBBER WORLD 



[October 1, 1919. 



THE MARKET FOR CHEMICALS AND COMPOUND- 

 ING INGREDIENTS. 

 NEW YORK. 



THE PAST MONTH has been characterized by the brisk demand 

 for chemicals and compounding ingredients that was noted 

 for the month previous. The outlook is favorable for a con- 

 tinuation of active business in all lines. 



Aniline Oil.— There is a scarcity in supply of this material 

 and the price is maintained at 28 cents per pound. 



Barytes.— The demand has been very good. Prices are steady 

 at $21 to $21.50 per ton. 



Benzol.— The market is firm and production has been sold 

 in advance at some sources. 



Dry Colors.— The market has improved to a condition of 

 very good demand in standard colors. 



Litharge. — In common with other lead products consumers' 

 business has been very active. 



LiTHOPONE.— Despite the brisk demand, some makers are oper- 

 ating at less than full capacity because of scarcity of labor. 



Mineral Rubber.— Assured business for this staple ingredient 

 has led to an increase of tonnage and brands available and the 

 development of an export trade in the material. 



Sublimed Lead.— The same conditions of active consumers de- 

 mand in this as in other lead products are taxing producers' 

 facilities of output and sustaining firm prices. 



Whiting.— There is not an oversupply and prices are steady. 



Zinc Oxide. — The demand and prices remain steady.
