This photograph shows a camphor flaker at the camphor plant of E.I. du Pont Nemours & Company at Deepwater Point NJ. At this plant camphor is manufactured for medical as well as industrial use. This latter is known as technical camphor. Technical camphor in flaked form is run from this machine directly into containers for shipment. Camphor was for centuries a natural monopoly.

Show moreThis photograph shows a camphor flaker at the camphor plant of E.I. du Pont Nemours & Company at Deepwater Point NJ. At this plant camphor is manufactured for medical as well as industrial use. This latter is known as technical camphor. Technical camphor in flaked form is run from this machine directly into containers for shipment. Camphor was for centuries a natural monopoly. Chinese, visiting the Island of Formosa in 1421, found trees from the chips of which the natives distilled a white crystalline material of pleasing door. This material-camphor- was soon in demand throughout the then civilized world, chiefly as a medicine. The Chinese annexed Formosa and built up a monopoly on camphor which they maintained until 1895, when they lost the island to Japan. The growth of plastics manufacture resulted in the development of camphor as an important industrial commodity. This fact was thoroughly appreciated by the Japanese who controlled the world market and with it the price. Chemical research was directed to a method for the synthesis of this vital material. Within recent years, DuPont chemists have devised a successful process by which turpentine from southern pines is converted into camphor suitable for medical as well as industrial use.

Both the laboratory basins contain salt water, often the only kid available to soldiers for bathing and laundry in some theaters of war.

Within the last few years, the chemist has developed a new kind of soap. Starting with ordinary vegetable and animal oils, the chemist now makes fatty alcohols which, in combination with sulfuric acid and other chemicals gives a new class of compounds known fatty alcohol sulfates. Although chemically quite different from ordinary soap certain of the fatty alcohol sulfates are the best detergents know. That is, they are similar to ordinary soap in cleansing properties but are better in that...
Show moreWithin the last few years, the chemist has developed a new kind of soap. Starting with ordinary vegetable and animal oils, the chemist now makes fatty alcohols which, in combination with sulfuric acid and other chemicals gives a new class of compounds known fatty alcohol sulfates. Although chemically quite different from ordinary soap certain of the fatty alcohol sulfates are the best detergents know. That is, they are similar to ordinary soap in cleansing properties but are better in that they work just as well in hard water as in soft water. Even with briny ocean water they form billows of foaming suds. Nor do they injure the most delicate fabric or tender skin. Because of their compatibility with hard water, these new soapless soaps are now finding wide application. This photographs shows a scene of what is known as a Gardinol flaker at the Deepwater Point New Jersey plant of E.I. du Pont Nemours & Company. The final step in manufacturing this synthetic detergent is processing through flaker rolls such as these.

The cylinder on the left contains hard water (0.04% or calcium chloride) to which a small amount of one of the new soapless soaps based on fatty alcohol sulfates has been added. Note the foamy suds extending all the way to the top of the cylinder. To the water in the cylinder on the right has been added an equal amount of ordinary soap. Note that the water has a milky appearance due to the formation of insoluble, sticky lime soaps, and that there are practically no suds.
