Big things start small. This curious book, one of the most popular reference books of the 1930s, is meant for anyone who thinks about creating their own business and for whatever reason relies only on themselves.

AUTHOR'S PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION.
The “Production technical and chemical compounding” issued by us is an applied reference book and therefore does not pursue scientific, but only practical purposes.
There have recently been a large number of individual brochures of an applied nature in the book market, but until now there have been no collections covering all branches of production, or at least most of them. The extent to which such a publication was timely, is proved by the fact that the first edition of this book was distributed throughout the year and caused several imitations both in Moscow and in Leningrad.
Encouraged by this success, we have significantly expanded all departments and added new ones, while maintaining their former character. At the same time, we tried, on the one hand, to avoid too detailed descriptions of individual productions that unnecessarily increase the volume and cost of the book, and on the other hand, to avoid giving only bare recipes. We left the distribution of the material the same as in the first edition - by production, finding it more convenient and expedient than the distribution in alphabetical order.
In addition to many original recipes that we tried in practice, we also used the latest advances in this field from well-established foreign books and magazines.
Despite the doubled size of the book, we still cannot claim to be comprehensive. We tried to give such material, which at this time is most of all interested in our technicians, chemists and handicraftsmen. We listened attentively to their wishes expressed in numerous letters and tried to satisfy them, as far as possible, with the many additions and corrections that we made in this second edition. We consider it our duty to express our sincere thanks to all these people.

PREFACE TO THE 3rd EDITION.
Not even a year has passed since a new edition of our “Production technical and chemical formulation” was needed. In this new, number three, edition, edited by prof. A. A. Kalachev, included many new recipes and production tips.
There is one more small innovation. Proportions in most cases are translated into parts by weight, and only in cases where it was more convenient, they remained in grams. Due to space savings, the weight parts are indicated only by numbers without the letter h, which must be borne in mind when using the book.
