A new light sensitive transfer material, DuPont Rotofilm, promises to simplify gravure printing, allowing reproductions of higher quality and reduce color printing cost. Rotofilm, like ordinary photographic film, can be processed by automatic...
This is the point where the film base receives its coating of light sensitive emulsion. The transparent base dips into a tray which is filled with emulsion and comes away with just the right thickness of emulsion coated on it. The point at which...
This Geiger-Muller counter is mounted on a stand of Lucite acrylic resin. Described as the most sensitive instruments known to man, such counters measure the degree of radiation from radioactive substances. They were used widely in determining...
Accuracy is extremely important in testing dyestuffs. Delicate balances are used, it being frequently necessary to weigh as little as 1 milligram of color. The DuPont Technical Laboratory is equipped with sensitive scientific balances, handled by...
A metallic material with unique on and off magnetic characteristics has been discovered by DuPont scientists doing fundamental research on magnetic substances. Above a specific temperature the compound chromium manganese antimonides, is strongly...
Highly ingenious laboratory tools and instruments help DuPont scientists uncover many secrets of nature ordinarily hidden from the human senses. This 'Breath meter' is so sensitive that mere blowing on the steel bar can easily be registered. This...
The micro balance, shown here in the Chemical Department's Analytical Laboratory at DuPont's Experimental Station is one of the essential tools of modern chemistry, which demands a high degree of measuring accuracy. The human hair eight inches...
