[Transcription]
Place one drop of warm colloid on one palm. Rotate palms together. Note the lubricity and the quick formation of a continuous film.
Continue rotation, noting the tenacious binding power (green strength). Test diversity of specific adhesion by touching various organic and inorganic materials.
Clap hands. Separate slowly. Observe the fibers that develop. Also the strength and flexibility of the remaining film. (Then wash hands. Note the easy cleanup.)

Extremely thin film formation. Coacervation. Encapsulation. Protective colloidal action. These are basic properties of Swift's Fluid Colloids demonstrated in the simple test described at left. How can you use them to help control uniform particle formation... binding, suspending, emulsifying, or dispersing other materials, or as film-formers or release aids?
Swift's Fluid Colloids are part of a family of refined collagen extracts with a unique combination of properties. They are high in molecular weight (20,000-80,000), amphoteric, and highly reactive. And they're pure, uniform, and stable for predictable performance. Fill out the coupon to see how they can help you.
I'm particularly interested in the following properties of Swift's Technical Colloids (highly refined, amphoteric, collagen extracts, in liquid or dry form, and in various molecular weights):
Lubrication to increase green strength compactness
Superthin film forming
Controlling particle size formation
Specific adhesion to a wide variety of organic and inorganic materials
Biodegradable protective coating of chemical additives or ingredients
Release characteristics of dried films
Controlled solubility
Insolubility of dried films in most organic solvents
Cross-linking with aldehydes to reduce water absorption
Excellent resistance to aging
Dust control aid
Modification of resinous, elastomeric, or starch binding systems
Replacing other protein type systems
Dispersing or emulsifying agent in binding solutions
Gelatin type properties without food grade cost
Nutrition source (plant and animal)
Dye leveling aid-mordant

[additional notes]
Coacervation is a form of liquid-liquid phase separation that forms two immiscible liquid phases.
