b) Walsroder Nitrocellulose: Storage and Handling

The sixteen-page brochure gives recommendations for the safe handling of Walsroder Nitrocellulose. It contains the latest information and advice by Dow Wolff Cellulosics on how to handle, transport, store and process nitrocellulose (NC) properly and safely. In addtion, the regulatory section in this brochure is very important since NC is subject to legislation on hazardous substances. A double page focuses on the free-flowing Walsroder NC packed in cartons, and to round off the safety-related information, the pamphlet also contains characteristic data and a list of further sources of information. Wolff Cellulosics hopes that this safety brochure will assist customers with personnel training.

NC Coating Study

Based on case studies, this study shows that the European VOC Directive and the relevant national legislation can be implemented in many areas in such a way that solvent-based coatings can be used considerably more cost-effectively. In an overall cost assessment based on a large-size operation using solvent coatings only, the cost advantage of solvent-based coating as compared with water-based coating is around 50 per cent. There is less of an advantage with smaller coating operations using both solvent-based and water-based coatings.
