NEW YORK CHAPTER NEWS ACETYLATED LANOLIN derivatives per se, and incorporated into typical soap emulsions, show great resistance to hydrolysis.

Amsterdam, Past President of the National Society words Lester Conrad, Technical Director of American Cholesterol Products, Inc., introduced the results of a three-year study of the New York Chapter at the November 2, 1960, meeting. These acetylareal products demonstrate the stability characteristic of waxes, and indeed the acetylated lanolin, lanolin alcohols and ricinoleate of lanolin alcohols contain no glycerides. The stability was determined by extracting the water-soluble acid
