Cornerstone Chemical Company Acrylonitrile

Cornerstone Chemical Company Acrylonitrile makes clothing and fabrics more durable and able to hold color and shape longer. Synthetic fibers and rubbers now allow tires to be safely used on cars for more than 60,000 miles, instead of the 20,000 or 30,000 miles we used to get. This reduces the number of tires that go into landfills.
