The expanding use of plastics is
providing new, important markets
for wood, according to the Forest
Products Laboratories of the De
partment of Mines and Resources.
Although cotton still remains the
main source, of cellulose for plas
tics, “Wood pulp has replaced it in
many instances, and since wood pulp
is (Cheaper than cotton cellulose, it
will undoubtedly replace cotton
more and ‘more as new uses for plas
tics are developed.
The nitrates and acetates are the
most .extensively used cellulose
plastics. Nitrate, prepared in con
siderable quantities from wood cel
lulose, is used in the making of
fountain pens, brushes, cutlery
i handles, and all sorts of novelties.
Except in the field of explosives,
acetate is su'perioi’ to nitrate for
many purposes. It is used in air
plane dopes and windshields, eye
pieces for gas masks, lamp shades,
handles for toojs, various automo
bile body parts, , advertising signs,
and because of its less inflammable
nature is replacing nitrocellulose in
the manufacture of photographic
film. Cellulose acetate is now re
ported to be produced from Wood
cellulose in England, and there
are many patents in the United Stat
es covering its production from this
material.
; Othei* dess extensively used cellu
lose plastics are the ethyl, methyl,
benzyl, acetobutyrate and • acetopro
pionate' derivatives. Ethyl” cellulose
is used in films, as an adhesive, in
coatin’g jnaterials and in- moulded
forms for .home construction. Methyl
cellulose is used in industrial opera
tions such as dispersing, emulsify
ing and sizing; benzyl cellulose as
transparent .wrapping paper with
Waterproof qualities; cellulose ace-
tobJityrate ’for outdoor furniture
and iq lacquers and other protec
tive coatings. * Cellulose acetopro
pionate • is used in photographic
films, particularly for X-ray
poses. »
