collection. Phenol resins were used in
both these parts. The blank contained wood flour, lamp black, phenol resin,
denatured alcohol and hexamethylene tetramine. The various elements the mixture were
pumped and then condensed under pressure and high heat. The container was sheathed steam jacket heat the
mixture phenol and formaldehyde and steam pipes were attached. This created the
thick resin, called condensite, which when cooled could used records.
