Celluloid is a man-made plastic comprised primarily of nitrocellulose and camphor.
Alexander Parkes (1813-1890) invented the first manmade plastic, Parkesine (aka synthetic ivory), in 1856. It was a form of pyroxylin (celluloid) and did not find the economical uses that its later successors, Celluloid and Xylonite, did.
"Parkesine," the first synthetic plastic, was invented in 1862 by Alexander Parkes, an Englishman. Recognizing the important plasticizing effect in the Parkesine production process, American John Wyatt renamed the substance celluloid in 1870
