  • Gregor Mendel (discovery of genes)
  • Isaac Newton (Laws of Gravity)
  • William Perkin (chemist who invented the first synthetic dye, mauveine) - Britain
  • Herman Mark (The father of polymer chemistry) - Austrian Jew
  • Otto Bayer - German scientist who invented polyurethane. (He's not related to the Bayer family that started the chemical company he worked for.)
  • Otto Rohm and Otto Haas - German scientists who invented acrylate polymers. These are used for things like Plexiglas and the plastic layer of safety glass.
  • Leo Baekeland - Belgian scientist who invented two things: prepackaged photo paper; and phenolic plastic. The photo paper made him rich; the phenolic made him immortal.
  • Agapito Flores - Philippine inventor of the fluorescent lamp.
