ANGUS Underscores Safety And Security For Hobby Racing With Introduction of NITROBOOSTTM KIX 100 Fuel Additive
Pomona, Calif. - March 31, 2007 ANGUS Chemical Company (ANGUS), a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Dow Chemical Company (Dow) and the global supply leader of nitromethane, introduces NITROBOOST™ KIX 100 Fuel Additive, an American-made base fuel for remote-controlled hobby vehicles, and underscores the industry standard for safe and effective use in the hobby market. NITROBOOST KIX 100 provides hobby enthusiasts with more horsepower and better engine performance for racing. As NITROBOOST KIX 100 is essentially pure nitromethane (NM™ Nitromethane), ANGUS works with only a select group of qualified formulators and recommends that they use no more than 55 percent nitromethane in their hobby fuel formulations. Qualified formulators are committed to upholding ANGUS standards for product stewardship. Formulators are evaluated every three years based on their end use applications and chemical compatibility, as well as storage, safety and security measures. “By requiring qualified formulators to adhere to a rigorous qualifications process, ANGUS continually illustrates its commitment to the hobby industry,” said Nanette Hermsen, global marketing manager, ANGUS. “Customers count on ANGUS to provide world-class product stewardship information to improve safety and security of nitromethane, and racers achieve what they value most in racing – enhanced performance by using NITROBOOST KIX Fuel Additive.” Further information about NITROBOOST KIX 100 Fuel Additive is available on the Internet at www.nitroboostfuel.com.
