New Industrial Uses
For Vemiculite Eyed
Vvanston, 111. (U.R) A re
search laboratory has been op
ened here to find new industrial
uses for vermiculite, a low-cost
incombustible mineral.
Dr. George Ziegler, director,
said his staff of 14 will deter
mine further uses for the mica
like material now known mainly
as a light weight plaster and con'
crete aggregate, as home insula
tion and as a coil conditioner.
Vermiculite does not burn and
provides a barrier to the spread
of flame. Used in concrete it pro
vides 12 to 16 times the insulat
ing value of ordinary sand con
crete; as a soil conditioner it
lightens heavy clay- soil and
strengthens sandy ground, Zieg
ler said. '
Vermiculite recently has been
used as a packing material for
breakable, perishable ' and in
flammable materials,'
