Today, the use of EPS (expanded polystyrene) products allows limitless options and custom solutions to enhance the aesthetic and creative appeal of new buildings and restorations in both residential and commercial applications. EPS is what is commonly known as Styrofoam, but this is actually a trademarked term by Dow Chemical, EPS is the generic term.

Typical applications include interior and exterior designs, architectural and building components (i.e. crown moldings, columns, bandings, balusters, window cornices, window arches, and door/window trim), signs, theater stage props, movie props, trade show displays, and landscape molds.

Expanded Polystyrene products have proven very economical compared to wood or concrete products, often providing a high percentage cost savings. It can also be manufactured quickly, reducing time frames, and avoiding the usual delays in construction. There are numerous advantages of using EPS for custom foam shapes.

Material and installation costs are comparatively low, because it is not heavy and are positioned and installed easily without the need for large mechanical equipments; It is easy to manage and handle; simple to cut and shape; it also bonds easily; it is moisture- resistant compared to wood; it has high strength despite its weight and not affected by vibration.

You can improve your room in a simple and inexpensive way with faux wood beams; you wont be able to tell the difference from real wood beams. Expanded polystyrene is also commonly used to make true to life faux stones, the moment these are coated with cement containing coats, voila! Its like the real thing and you would not distinguish it.

could anyone help me find a commercial supplier in the U.S. of pure acetalyne. I need to know the name of the distributor, the website, the price of pure acetylene (and not the acetalyne isotope), and most important I need to know the order number.

Thank you!!!!

Acetalyne? i never heard of this.
Maybe you meant Acetylene.

The first link is the better one, but you will have to register in order to see if its available. All the information will be given there.

Monsanto is a leading global provider of agricultural products and systems sold to farming concerns. Their leading products are the Roundup herbicide, DEKALB and Agrow seed products, and biotechnology traits.

Products have also included Agent Orange, the now ubiquitous PCBs, DDT, recombinant Bovine Growth Hormone and Aspartame. The company’s profits for fiscal year 2007 are $1.06 billion. Monsanto has 17,500 employees.

Monsanto’s global pollution legacy

In the Washington Post article (Jan 1, 2002) “Monsanto Hid Decades Of Pollution PCBs Drenched Ala. Town, But No One Was Ever Told” a grim story of Monsanto’s treacherous behavior in Anniston Alabama was revealed. It is summed up in this chilling paragraph: “They also know that for nearly 40 years, while producing the now-banned industrial coolants known as PCBs at a local factory, Monsanto Co. routinely discharged toxic waste into a west Anniston creek and dumped millions of pounds of PCBs into oozing open-pit landfills. And thousands of pages of Monsanto documents – many emblazoned with warnings such as “CONFIDENTIAL: Read and Destroy” – show that for decades, the corporate giant concealed what it did and what it knew.”

Monsanto, Agent Orange and dioxins

Agent Orange was manufactured by Monsanto, Dow Chemicals (manufacturers of napalm), Uniroyal, Hercules, Diamond Shamrock, Thompson Chemical and TH Agriculture. Monsanto [was] the main supplier. The Agent Orange produced by Monsanto had dioxin levels many times higher than that produced by Dow Chemicals, the other major supplier of Agent Orange to Vietnam…. Monsanto’s involvement with the production of dioxin contaminated 2,4,5-T dates back to the late 1940s. ‘Almost immediately workers started getting sick with skin rashes, inexplicable pains in the limbs, joints and other parts of the body, weakness, irritability, nervousness and loss of libido,’ to quote Peter Sills, author of a forthcoming book on dioxins. Internal Monsanto memos show that Monsanto knew of the problems but once again a cover-up was the order of the day…. Operation Hades, later changed to Operation Ranch Hand, sprayed 6 million acres of forest in Vietnam, 19 million gallons of defoliant. The intention was to turn Vietnam into desert, to cause such destruction that Vietnam would never recover…. The most gruesome legacy caused by spraying Vietnam with dioxin contaminated Agent Orange was that born by the Vietnamese themselves. In a locked room of Tu Du Obstetrical and Gynaecological Hospital in Saigon are rows of formaldehyde-filled jars containing deformed fetuses, a grotesque illustration of Man’s inhumanity to Man. The level of poverty in Vietnam prevents the preservation of further examples. Many of the living have fared little better, limb deformities, cancers. Says this CorpWatch article, “The Vietnamese government estimates that three million Vietnamese were exposed to these chemicals during the war, and that at least 800,000 suffer serious health problems today as a result”.

Fears were also expressed that Monsanto’s terminator genes could spread to wild plants. According to the UN Commission on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture, “Cross-fertilising V-GURT containing crops may cause considerable effects in neighbouring crop stands and wild relatives…. The fact that in North America, where large stands of GMO varieties are now grown contamination of non-GMO varieties by GMO germplasm has been observed … suggests that this scenario is a realistic probability”.

The campaign to undermine organic agriculture

Monsanto partially funds the anti-organic Center for Global Food Issues, a project of the right-wing Hudson Institute. It is run by Dennis Avery and his son Alex Avery. Here find the latest on Hudson’s anti-environmental and pro-biotech spinmeister Michael Fumento, and his secretly taking money (at least $60,000) from Monsanto. See also.

In 1998 Dennis wrote an article that began “‘According to recent data compiled by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC), people who eat organic and natural foods are eight times as likely as the rest of the population to be attacked by a deadly new strain of E. coli bacteria (0157:H7)’.

However, according to Robert Tauxe, M.D., chief of the food borne and diarrheal diseases branch of the CDC, there is no such data on organic food production in existence at their centers and he says Avery’s claims are ‘absolutely not true.’”. Following in his father’s steps Alex distorted a study from the Journal of Food Protection that showed that organic food does not contain more pathogens than conventionally grown, contrary to Avery’s claims.
