Use of radioisotopes in engine and tire manufacturing in United States

A 1957 Ford Fairlane convertible automobile with top down, pulls into a "Mobil gas" station, and an attendant comes out to serve the driver. He opens the hood revealing the engine which is dominated by a large air filter on its top. Next, the scene shifts to a V8 engine mounted on a test stand in an automotive laboratory . The engine parts have been irradiated so that the slightest wear will be detected in engine oil. Oil drained from engine is collected and passed to atomic scintillation counter. A graph showing wearing metals of the engine. Scene shifts back to the convertible in the gas station, where the little girl leans over to watch the service station attendant check the pressure on one of the white wall tires. This introduces the discussion and views of radioactive applications in tire manufacture. Nylon fabric woven into tires at a factory is shown being precisely measured using atomic radiation technology. Thickness of nylon tire fabric is graphed continuously as it passes measurement station in automated production process. And rubber being applied is constantly monitored. If out of specification, lights alert the operator to intervene and reset controls. Final scene shows the woman and girl, from the opening scene. driving their Ford Fairlane convertible in a residential town or suburban neighborhood.

Use of radioactive chemicals in experiments leading to use of fluoride in dentistry.

Testing procedures that led to advent of fluoride treatment in dentistry for prevention of cavities. A boy brushing his teeth. In a laboratory, teeth that had been made radioactive at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Tennessee, are subjected to mechanical brushing with stannous fluoride. A technician places a tooth in a Petri dish. He drops acid (akin to that produced by the human mouth which causes tooth decay) over the tooth, via a pipette. A woman technician using a Geiger counter, measures the amount of radioactive tooth dissolved by the acid. Experiment showed that the stannous fluoride reduced damage to the tooth caused by the acid.

Use of radioactivity to explore oil and new fuels in United States, and other uses of atomic energy.

A man with a briefcase gets off a airplane and sets his brief case down. A plastic sheet production factory and rolls of colored plastic being created with the aid of a "Atom Ray" thickness gauge used in manufacturing. An oil drilling site. Drilling core samples of rock are extracted from the bottom of the hole. They are collected and sent to laboratory in a van. The core samples are irradiated in a particle accelerator or atom smasher and the response of different elements in the samples is observed, providing information about their composition. Activity is recorded on paper and a needle moves over a graph during particle acceleration. Engineer shows an experimental well logging device that contains a radiation source for use deep in the hole to determine nature of the strata without having to remove a core. Geologists examine a graph. Engineers subject oil samples to bombardment by neutrons in a nuclear reactor. Test apparatus is lowered down in a water pool. It is anchored to a movable rack and water is filled in the pool. The test apparatus is moved into position beside the atomic reactor uranium core. The core goes critical and irradiates the test sample with neutrons. Control equipment is switched on. Red sign illuminates with message "Reactor on." The core glows. An engineer looks to observe the test apparatus. Another engineer operates control equipment in front of a General Electric Reactor Control panel. Summary of role of radioactivity in ordinary life, in medicine, food production, manufacturing, transportation, and the home. Exterior of a a nuclear reactor is shown beside power transmission equipment. A man in a hospital room receiving treatment from cobalt machine radiotherapy or radiation therapy. (External beam radiotherapy, or EBRT machine, also called a teletherapy machine). Several cows on a farm walking beside grain silos with a farm house nearby. A man applying stain or varnish to wood with a brush. A rack of automobile whitewall tires in a warehouse. A woman or housewife in a 1950s kitchen pouring coffee for a another woman. A van passes by a suburban house on a street in a 1950s American town and a mail man or post man delivers to the house. Scenes of a main street or downtown area busy with pedestrian and street traffic in White Plains, New York. Light post on pedestal in front of a municipal building with People's National Bank and Trust Company Building in background, at 31 Mamaroneck Ave, White Plains, New York. Elevated, wide view of city of White Plains, New York. AT&T Telecommunications Tower and Switching Center (then in the Bell Telephone system network), at 400 Hamilton Avenue, seen rising above all other buildings.
