Who? Where? Why? & What? is DuPont™ Kevlar®

Let's take a journey back in time to explore the origins of Kevlar. Throughout history, humans have relied on materials provided by nature, such as wood, stone, metals and animal elements, for various purposes like shelter and tools. However, a significant breakthrough occurred in the 1930s when an American researcher named Wallace Carothers, working at DuPont, developed Nylon – the first fully synthetic fiber. This innovative creation replaced silk just in time for World War II rationing. Synthetic fabrics like nylon and polyester brought about a new era in materials science with their enhanced properties.Now let's fast forward to the present and ask ourselves why Kevlar holds such importance today. Kevlar is an extraordinary super strong plastic known for its ability to protect against heat, fire, electricity, chemicals and cuts. It surpasses ordinary materials as both Kevlar 29 and Kevlar
