Sentences with NAPHTHOL (5)
From [Greek: a]- and [Greek: b]-naphthol a number of sulphonic acids may easily be prepared; viz., mono-, di-, and trisulphonic acids.
Pat., 70,162.] It is a remarkable fact that non-condensed methane derivatives of naphthol, _e.g._, b-naphthol-a-methanesulphonic acid, dissolved in water and partly neutralised, are devoid of tanning character when allowed to act upon pelt.
