DuPont NEWS

E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company (DuPont) is the world's second largest chemical company (behind Dow Chemical Company), and in the 20th century led the polymer revolution by developing many highly successful materials such as neoprene, nylon, Corian, Lucite, Teflon, Mylar, Kevlar, M5 fiber, Nomex, and Tyvek. DuPont has also been significantly involved in the refrigerant industry, developing and producing the Freon series and more modern environmentally-friendly refrigerants, and the color industry, creating synthetic pigments and paints like ChromaFlair. The company often gives trademark names to its material products, many of which have become more well-known and commonly used than the generic or chemical word for the material itself.
