Re: What is resonite

TKS for the "push", Gordon, from a bit more looking around, the ONLY ref to Resonite I've found in our usual cl books is [briefly] in Rendall, 3rd Ed [197X ?], pg 14 as "certain artificial resins, Perspex [I believe its an acrylic] and Sonorite and Resonite [he describes them as "reinforced nylon material"] . Soooo, perhaps a number of us should just tip our hat and "ride off into the sunset" with our hardened [modern-syn] rubber guesses, myself included. I'll look it up , next library trip in plastics encyclopedias, and try the tradename listings in our patent site, and plastics supplier info, for definition. Your observations re: smell, {you might try burning a sliver, and smelling its odor cautiously} are worthy of being considered. I seem to recall a PE/PP reinforced with fabric, nylon perhaps ?? Also a mention of Borden Resonite film PS-26, by Lantech Inc. What a research project this has turned into !!! HELP<HELP ! Don

Thanx, Mark, Don
