Notes: Label source: Jointless flooring Dr Howes, I have compared some filings of Brazil nut with the 'Dahliti' nut powder, and it agrees quite well. I think the material is too finely divided to permit a definite identification to be made. I presume the 'Dahli, ti' is kept moist by some chemical treatment. (Brazil nut filings are very dry in comparison) C.R.M. 24.2.36
