1. During the past few yearsl the entire plant of VEB Chemische Werke Buna,
Schkopau, has been altered in such a way that, in the flow of production,
the individual producing sections are mutually interdependent. This
makes it ever more difficult to put newly-developed products into production.
A system of pipelines was installed in the plant to be used in convey" Are
the products of one section on to the next one, etc.
2. However, since the alteration of the factory took place one of the biggest
difficulties in the way of a normal flow of production has been the lack
of an assured supply of raw materials and of sufficient reserves of raw
materials. Furthermore, the rate of replacement of parts for machinery
which was obtained from the West is unsatisfac o ry an i -th.L s-ruffi-

Products Being Developed as of July 1957
3. As of July 1957 the following products were being developed at VEB Chemische
Werke Buna, Schkopau:
a. Buna S 4 T: a plastic synthetic rub1er with high impulse resistance.
Its principal application will be in the manufacture of tires, cable,
hose and conveyor belts.
b. Epoxide resin: a solvent-free adhesive which hardens with the addition
of hardeners and under the influence of heat without any loss of substance,~%
c. Varnish raw material Lackrohstoff) PVJ (?): a varnish binding agent whietti-
is suitable for rust protection and other special-purpose varnish uses.
This product can be combined with various other varnish raw materials.

d. Polyvinyl alcohol Schkopau 80: a polyvinyl alcohol of an especially high
degree of polymerization; especially suitable for the optical industry.
e. PVC-SP Schkopau: a suspension of polymeride which is practically nonwater-
absorbing and of great value for the electrical industry, especially for the
manufacture of high-grade cable and transparent foils.
f. Vinalit SP 80: a Perlon polymeride (Perlpolymerisat) of vinyl acetate with
a high K value. It differs from Vinalit SP 60 in having a higher fusing
temperature.
g. Polyester: a casting resin (Gussharz) for the manufacture even of large parts
without using presses and with small tool cost. In combination with glass
and other fibers, very high mechanical characteristics are achieved.
h. Polyethylene: the well-known injection die-casting material (Spritzguss-
material with capabilities for universal processing and application: for
example, flexible foils, cable, rust protection and numerous products for
use in daily life.
