>I eventually licensed my product to the Super
Sensitive Musical String
>Company and they market a series of synthetic bow
rosins called
>Clarity. They have decided to primarily market
Clarity as
>hypoallergenic and it ís now available over the
web and most instrument
>stores.
>By the way, we are using fully hydrogenated
dicyclopentadiene (DCPD)
>resins as replacements for rosins. They are
commonly used in adhesives
>for surgical tapes and diaper construction
adhesives and have been
>extensively tested for allergenic effects.
>
>
>Oh, and if you happen to play violin, especially
the delightful Swedish
>fiddle tunes, let me know and I’ll send you some
Clarity.
