(OH), in place of some SiO.). A naturally occurring
uranium mineral. Color black; sp. gr. $.1; luster ad-
amantine; commonly fine-grained and mixed with
organic matter and other minerals. .

tained by steam distillation from wine lees. A green
to bluish-green liquid with the characteristic aroma
of cognac. Soluble in most fixed oils and in mineral
oil, It is very slightly soluble in propylene glycol and
insoluble in glycerine. Combustible. Low toxicity.

cobune oll. ig oil, with properties
similar to ce abassu oils. Its composition
is 4€% lauric acid, 16% myristic acid, and 10% oleic
acid, balsnce mixed acids. Obtained from a palm

ble; nontoxic.
“Coilife.7% Trademark for special epoxy resin ©
_ capsuiation of random wound stators utilizing sol-
ventless epoxy resin formulations and rotational sea-
soning process.
coke. The carbonaceous residue of the destructi
distillation (carbonization) of bituminous coal,
troleum, and coal-iar pitch. The principal type is
that produced by heating bituminous coal in chem-
ical recovery of beehive coke ovens (metallurgical
coke), one ton of coal yielding about 0.7 ton of coke.
it is used chiefly for reduction of iron ore in blast
furnaces, and as a source of synthesis gas. Petroleum
yields coke during the cracking process. Coke de-
Tived from petroleum residues and coal-tar pitch is
used for refractory furnace finings in the clectro-
refining of aluminum and other high-temperature
service: also for electrodes in electrolytic reduction
of alumina to aluminum, as well as in electrothermal
production of phosphorus, silicon carbide, and cal-
cium carbide.

cold flow. The permanent deformation of a material
that occurs as a result of prolanged compression or
extension at or near room temperature. Some plas-
tics and vulcanized rubber exhibit this behavior, in
metals it is known as creep.
cold rubber, Synthetic rubber produced by polymer-
ization at relatively low temperatures; specifically,
SBR or butadienc-styrene-elastomers produced by
polymerization at about 40°F compared with usual
temperature of about 120°F. A special catalyst sys-
Cotas required.
colemanite, The ore of calcium borate (Ca:B,Ou1-
5H20). Sp. gr. 2.26~2.48. Used to replace boric acid
in the manufacture of glass fibers. Mined in Turkey,
it began to be imported into the U.S. in large volume
in 1965 and is competitive with domestically pro-
duced B,0), derived from kernite.
“Colex."! Trademark for a finely powdered bone
glue used for adhesion in water paints.
colistin CasHasNixOve. Antibiotic produced by a soil
microorganism. Probably identical to polymyxin E
and closely related chemically to polymyain B, since
is a polypeptide composed of amino acids and a
tty acid. See polymyxin.
collagen. A fibrous protein comprising most of the
white fiber in the connective tissues of animals and
man, especially in the skin, muscles and tendons.
The most abundant protein in the animal kingdom, it
is rich in proline and hydroxyproline, The molecule
is analogous to @ three-strand rope, in which each
strand is a polypeptide chain; it has a molecular
weight of about 100,000. Glue made from the collagen
of animal hides and skins is still widely used as an
adhesive. So-atled “soluble” collagen is that first
formed in the skin; upon aging it becomes increas-
ingly crosslinked and less hygroscopic. “Soluble”
collagen is being used in the cosmetic industry as
the basis for face creams, lotions and hair-dressing
preparations. Special forms of collagen have been
developed for dialysis membranes. Microcrystaliine
collagen is being used in prosthetic devices and other
medical and surgical applications. Regenerated col-
Jagen, used in sausage casings, is made by neutraliz-
ing with acid collagen that ‘has been purified by
alkaline treatment. Eottagen is conver to ‘gelatin
by boiling in water, which causes hydrolytic cleavage
of the protein to a mixture of degradation products,
‘See also gelatin.
