Energy subsidies are widely attacked from many different viewpoints about public policy. Thus, among economists, both severe critics of the oil companies, such as Blair, and those such as Adelman and McAvoy who stress defective government policy criticize the subsidies. Environmentalists and other supporters of active government often feel that too many programs aid the unworthy. 

A similar method of test was used at the International Nickel Company s Corrosion Laboratory at North Carolina. The specimen discs are mounted on insulated vertical spindles and submerged in sea-water, which is supplied continuously to the tank in which the specimens are immersed. The maximum peripheral speed of the spinning disc is about 760cms , and the characteristic pattern of attack is shown in Fig. 19.3a. Studies of variation of depth of attack with velocity indicate that at low velocities (up to about 450 cm s ) alloys such as Admiralty brass, Cu-lONi and cupro-nickel alloys containing iron maintain their protective film with a consequent small and similar depth of attack for the diflferent alloys. At higher velocities the rate increases due to breakdown of the film. 

At the request of an international petroleum company, a major manufacturer and supplier of down-hole equipment performed tests of the various elastomers commonly used in the construction of packers and other oil field tools. Seven of the nine most commonly used thermoplastic materials were found to be completely inert to TKPP solutions. The test included continual immersion in saturated TKPP for 21 days at 280°F. Only two elastomers, Vi-ton and Fluorel, showed any adverse reaction. O-rings made from these two elastomers showed minor cracking at the termination of the test. A listing of the elastomers that tested inert to TKPP solutions include nitrile, saturated nitrile (HNBR), Aflas, Kalrez, PEEK, Glass-filled Teflon, and Ryton. Several of these elastomers are attacked or degraded by conventional clear completion fluids containing calcium and zinc halides. The inertness of commonly employed elastomers to TKPP is an important advantage for TKPP fluids in normal operations.

One company withdrew a niacin product it marketed because capsules contained 10 times the quantity of niacin claimed. Users experienced heart attacks, nausea and vomiting, and liver damage as a result of using the product. 

When Japan attacked Hawaii in December 1941, the most critical chemical problem was the solution to the rubber shortage because the far Eastern suppliers were cut off. Since Speed had become a polymer chemist during 1930-1940, he became part of this rubber program. The major rubber companies, many universities, and other chemical companies put aside their competition and pooled their research efforts and in about a year s time developed a usable SR that was manufactured and used in smaller types of tires.
