'According to Dyn-O-Mat®, the company and 'its team of experts have developed a proprietary blend of formulated polymers that have undergone intense laboratory study and actual testing. They believe that if they deliver their formulated polymer via jet aircraft into the outer bank of a hurricane working their way into the eye cutting a pie shape piece out of the storm it should cause the winds and the strength of the storm to diminish. The polymers will be delivered into storms via jet aircraft with specialized disbursement systems.
'In early 2001 Dyn-O-Mat®, utilizing a Canberra Jet, dispersed a nominal amount of its formulated polymer into a building thunderstorm off the coast of Florida. The result was that the thunderstorm was removed from Doppler radar. This was verified by the Palm Beach International Airport traffic controllers and local media weather stations.
'Additionally, Dyn-O-Mat® holds a U. S. Patent for the disbursement of their formulated polymers into clouds thereby giving them the opportunity to alter weather.' [3] Patent
Patent Application No. 598660 filed June 21, 2000: 'A method for artificially modifying the weather by seeding rain clouds of a storm with suitable cross-linked aqueous polymer. The polymer is dispersed into the cloud and the wind of the storm agitates the mixture causing the polymer to absorb the rain. This reaction forms a gelatinous substance which precipitate to the surface below. Thus, diminishing the clouds ability to rain.' [4]" http://sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Dyn-O-Mat,_Inc.
BBC "Thursday, 2 August, 2001, 01:45 GMT 02:45 UK US makes 'weather control powder'
Scientists hope to reduce the effects of hurricanes By BBC Science's Julian Siddle A company in the United States claims it has invented a powder that can be used to remove clouds from the sky and even stop the development of hurricanes.
They say the new product could help many areas of the world that are subject to extreme weather conditions.
The powder absorbs water from storm clouds
The Florida based company, Dyn-o-mat, used a military aircraft to drop four tonnes of its powder on to a developing storm cloud. The cloud disappeared from radar screens, which were monitoring the experiment.
Officials from the company, which produces materials to absorb pollutants such as oil and acids, say they used a specially developed powder that absorbs large quantities of water.
'Completely safe'
The water is then turned into a gel before falling out of the sky.
The company says the gel is completely safe, bio-degradable, and breaks down in seawater - though they refuse to say exactly what is in it.
Among the applications that it envisages for the powder are clearing away clouds before sports fixtures and constraining the development hurricanes.
The company believes that a tightly controlled jet of the powder aimed at the hurricane would cut it into smaller pieces, making it far less threatening.

"According to the Associated Press, the American Meteorological Society says no hypothesis for hurricane modification has ever been proven to work. Meteorologists remain intrigued by Dyn-O-Mat's idea, but the field's history of unfulfilled promises has left them wary of Cordani's claims. 'The Dyn-O-Mat folks need to develop a credible scientific hypothesis and move beyond anecdotal accounts [of] 'We dumped the stuff in a cloud, and it went away,' ' says Hugh Willoughby, director of the Hurricane Research Division at the National Oceanic & Atmosphere Administration (NOAA)." http://www.anomalies-unlimited.com/Chemtrails/Dyn-O-Gel.html

So, the question to the American Meteorological Society is: Why should the US Airforce or Evergreen or whoever is in the skies putting those trails in the blue make the effort of chemtrailing, if there is no meteorological purpose behind it? If it is not, it is even more scarying because it is even more puzzling.
By James Janega, Tribune staff reporter " (...) The entrepreneur's plan
In fact, jumping into an airplane is exactly what Cordani, the entrepreneur, has done.
The businessman, 45, is chief executive of an absorbent-products company called Dyn-O-Mat--named for its first product, a mat to absorb oil spills under garaged cars.
The absorbent element, a non-toxic polyacrylamide, can be made into powder. In water it turns instantly to cool jelly, then dissolves again in salt water. This is what he wants to drop on hurricane clouds.
The closest Cordani came to doing it was July 19, 2001, when he leased a plane to drop several hundred pounds of prototype gel on a thunderstorm 10 miles off West Palm Beach, Fla.
TV cameras rolled from helicopters and nearby boats, with video of the falling powder showing the cloud collapsing on itself like a falling building.
Cordani might be dismissed altogether if not for the possibility that his idea could work--not by making a hurricane disappear but by disrupting the orderly growth of its winds.
"It would seem to tend to weaken a storm," said Peter Ray, a hurricane researcher at Florida State University, supporter of Cordani and proponent of computer modeling. "How it all plays out is difficult to say without a careful scientific analysis. If that were done properly, we would know with a high degree of confidence whether it would work."
Feeling he hasn't gotten a fair shake from the rest of academic and governmental officialdom, Cordani has turned his attention to stringent computer models.
He has made overtures for funding from oil companies, insurance businesses and the government. Figuring he might need to drop a lot of powder, he's working with an Oregon company that modified a 747 to fight forest fires. His first tests with it may come this summer.
Taking on a hurricane might take a fleet of four or five planes, Cordani guesses, perhaps flying more than once. Field tests and computer models will determine how much powder and how many planes, he says.
Still, for a man greeted with frozen smiles at hurricane conferences and one whose office is wallpapered with news clippings about hurricane devastation, Cordani is demonstrably optimistic about his chances.
He keeps two bags packed with product samples and information, in case a last-minute summons comes to make his case before the people who draft U.S. weather policy.
