Nylon was invented at DuPont laboratories by Wallace Hume Carothers. He also invented neoprene. These inventions were made prior to WW 2 and helped greatly in the war effort. Neoprene being a synthetic rubber and nylon a replacement for silk. Japan was the leading producer of silk and for obvious reasons we could not buy it from them during the war. Nylon was invented on February, 28 1935 in Wilmington Delaware.
There was no nylon in the Middle Ages. Nylon was invented in the 20th century; the Middle Ages ended in the 15th.
Nylon stockings in WW2Nylon stockings first went on sale to the general public in May 1940 and were extremely popular. However, by 1942 demand for nylon for military use (for example for parachutes) was so great that very few stockings were made. It took till March 1946 for Du Pont to satisfy demand in the U.S.
Nylon melts. Think about the end of a piece of nylon rope, it is better to burn it than to cut it to the length you want. From Wikipedia: Used in carpets and nylon stockings; Melts instead of burning; Used in many military applications; Good specific strength
Nylon was invented by American inventor Wallace Carothers. It pioneered the use in nylon stocking, parachutes and other products.
Nylon, invented by a chemist at the DuPont Chemical Company in 1935, and first used in women's stockings in 1940.
Although nylon was not originally invented for use in stockings, it was unveiled in this design in 1939 at the World's Fair in New York to a women's club.
Nylon is a lot cheaper and more available than silk for stockings.
Nylon was invented as a synthetic alternative to silk, which was in high demand for stockings and other textile applications before World War II. The goal was to create a strong, durable, and affordable material that could mimic the qualities of silk.
Nylon is the most common polymer used in economically-priced stockings because it is durable, stretchy, and affordable. Nylon stockings have good elasticity, making them comfortable to wear and resistant to runs and tears.
Nylon is the polymer that is commonly found in stockings and ropes due to its strength, elasticity, and durability.
Yes, nylon stockings can melt when exposed to high temperatures, such as those found in a dryer or direct contact with heat sources like irons or stoves. It is important to follow the manufacturer's care instructions to avoid damaging nylon stockings.
Radioimmunoassay was invented in 1959 and is a method for chemically analyzing human blood. Integrated circuits or chips were invented in 1959 by two people working independently of each other.They make it possible for computers and electronic devices to be very small and inexpensive. Pantyhose was invented in 1959.It soon replaced nylon stockings because mini skirts in the 1960s were to short to hide a garter(what used to hold up the nylon stockings)
Nylon is used for both parachutes and stockings.
Women's nylon stockings. Also cloth, rope, brushes, and many more items are made from nylon
