                   NOTE TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

     The attached condensed financial information has been prepared in
accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, does not include
all financial note information which might be necessary for a fair
presentation in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Such
condensed financial information is unaudited, but in the opinion of
management, includes all adjust ments, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments and accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of results for the
periods indicated. The net income reported for the periods should not
necessarily be regarded as indicative of net income on an annualized basis;
however, significant variations from the results for the same period of the
previous year, if any, have been disclosed in the accompanying management's
discussion and analysis. Certain reclassifications of prior year's data have
been made to improve comparability.

                   Management's Discussion and Analysis of

                Financial Condition and Results of Operations


Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Despite a decrease of $17.2 million in the company's net cash position
(cash and cash equivalents plus short-term investments less short-term
borrowings and current portion of long-term debt and capital lease) during
the first nine months of 1995, the company remains strong in its ability to
generate adequate cash to meet the needs of current operations and to fund
strategic initiatives.  The decline in the net cash position is due largely
to increased short-term borrowings associated with financing (i) the purchase
on May 31, 1995 of a 90% interest in Celumi Ltda., a Brazilian metalworking
business, for approximately $6.6 million in cash and notes (ii) increases in
operating working capital (primarily increases in accounts receivable
generated from higher sales) and (iii) the replacement of maturing long-term
obligations with short-term debt.  Operating working capital increased
approximately $11.8 million as a result of higher sales activity,
particularly in Europe.  Other major sources and uses of cash during the first
nine months of 1995 included: a receipt of $2.0 million related to the 1993
sale of the SULFA-SCRUB (registered trademark) patents and technology; $7.8
million in expenditures for additions to property, plant and equipment and
other assets, and dividend payments of $4.5 million.  The current ratio at
September 30, 1995 was 1.6/1 as compared to 1.9/1 at December 31, 1994
essentially reflecting the impact of the aforementioned change in short-term
debt.

Comparison of Nine Months 1995 with Nine Months 1994

     Through nine months, consolidated net sales increased $28.9 million
(20%) due mainly to increased sales volume, particularly in Europe, and the
appreciation of European currencies versus the U.S. dollar.  Income from
operations improved $.3 million as higher sales volume offset lower gross
margins resulting from raw material cost inflation.  The increase in sales
was due to a 9% increase in volume; a 6% improvement associated with currency
translation; and increases from price/mix and business acquisitions in Europe
and South America of 2% and 3%, respectively.

     Operating margins as a percentage of sales declined due to the negative
effect of rising raw material costs.  Other income rose primarily because of
increased license fee income. Net interest costs rose due to the above-noted
decline in the company's net cash position.  The decrease in equity in net
income from associated companies was due to business development investment
costs in the company's Fluid Recycling Services joint venture.  Net income
was impacted favorably by approximately $.07 per share due to currency
translation.

                                    - 8 -


     The company continues to be encouraged by sales trends, particularly in
Europe.  However, pricing conditions in the company's major markets remain
highly competitive, and will make it difficult to restore gross margins to
more desirable levels in the coming months.


Comparison of Third Quarter 1995 with Third Quarter 1994

     Consolidated net sales for the third quarter of 1995 increased $7.8
million (15%) due mainly to increased sales volume, particularly in Europe,
and the appreciation of European currencies versus the U.S. dollar.  Income
from operations was down $.2 million due to lower gross margins resulting
from raw material cost inflation and a one-time charge for a recently
declared bankruptcy of one of the company's U.S. steel customers.  The
increase in sales was due to a 7% increase in volume; a 3% improvement
associated with currency translation; and increases from price/mix and
business acquisitions in Europe and South America of 1% and 4%, respectively.
The one-time charge noted above had an adverse impact on net income of
approximately $.02 per share.

     The reasons for the changes in operating margin percentages, other
income and net interest costs in the third quarter 1995 versus third quarter
1994 are basically the same as those previously mentioned for the comparative
nine-month periods.  The decrease in equity in net income from associated
companies was primarily due to lower earnings from the company's Japanese
affiliate, which is being hampered by sluggish demand in the Japanese steel
industry, and business development investment costs in the company's Fluid
Recycling Services joint venture.
