Celanese now offers y o u a choice of three vinyl monomers for the development of better emulsion paints, adhesives, coatings, finishes, laminates, plastics and synthetic rubbers. Celanese Vinyl Acetate, a truly versatile chemical, is the starting point in t he development of a variety of end products, such as adhesives, textile sizes, protective coatings, sheets, film and extrusion molding compounds. Celanese Vinyl Propionate copolymers offer promising applications in the fields of adhesives, emulsion paints, plastics, synthetic rubbers, protective coatings and finishes, chewing gum resins. Celanese Methyl Isopropenyl Ketone, a new vinyl monomer, forms tough plastics in homopolymerization, and copolymerizes with many commercially avai lable vinyls for use in plastics, films, elastomers and adhesives.
