    2001 ANNUAL REPORT DuPont at 200 In 2002, DuPont celebrates its 200th anniversary. The company that began as a small, family firm on the banks of Delaware’s Brandywine River is today a global enterprise operating in 70 countries around the world. From a manufacturer of one main product – black powder for guns and blasting – DuPont grew through a remarkable series of scientific leaps into a supplier of some of the world’s most advanced materials, services and technologies. Much of what we take for granted in the look, feel, and utility of modern life was brought to the marketplace as a result of DuPont discoveries, the genius of DuPont scientists and engineers, and the hard work of DuPont employees in plants and offices, year in and year out. Along the way, there have been some exceptional constants. The company’s core values of safety, health and the environment, ethics, and respect for people have evolved to meet the challenges and opportunities of each era, but as they are lived today they would be easily recognizable to our founder. The central role of science as the means for gaining competitive advantage and creating value for customers and shareholders has been consistent. It would be familiar to any employee plucked at random from any decade of the company’s existence. Yet nothing has contributed more to the success of DuPont than its ability to transform itself in order to grow. Whether moving into high explosives in the latter 19th century, into chemicals and polymers in the 20th century, or into biotechnology and other integrated sciences today, DuPont has always embraced change as a means to grow.

  • Global Environmental Conference -Gpec 2005 Creating Sustainability for the Environment
    GPEC 2005 Paper Abstract #14: Title: DuPont Sorona® Polymer: A New Sustainable Platform for Growth Author(s): Joseph Kurian, Randy Milby, Ray Miller, Bio-Based Materials, DuPont Company, Experimental Station E402/4311 Wilmington, Delaware 19880, USA E-mail: [email protected] Phone: 302-695-7220 ABSTRACT Responding to environmental, sustainability, business and market needs, DuPont has commercialized a new polymer platform, Sorona®, based on 1,3-propanediol. Sorona® polymer can be shaped into fibers and other articles to offer a unique combination of properties and value to customers. Retrofittable Sorona® polymerization and process technology enables manufacturers of apparel and specialty engineering resins to use their existing assets to make new, higher-value products to meet customer needs. DuPont Tate & Lyle Bioproducts, LLC, an equally owned company between DuPont and Tate & Lyle, recently announced plans to create products from renewable resources for numerous applications including clothing, interiors, engineering polymers and textile fibers. The company is constructing its initial commercial manufacturing plant in Loudon, TN., with startup scheduled for 2006. Because corn is a renewable resource, and can be produced anywhere in the world, PDO becomes less expensive to manufacture. Demand for Sorona® polymer is growing in fibers, engineering thermoplastics, films, and several other markets. DuPont has licensed Sorona® fiber technology to a number of manufacturers for applications development. This presentation will highlight Sorona® polymer work focused toward engineering thermoplastics. From corn to polymer to future, Sorona® offers a multitude of advantages. Learn all about the advantages Sorona® offers by visiting http://www.dupont.com/sorona GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL CONFERENCE -GPEC 2005 CREATING SUSTAINABILITY FOR THE ENVIRONMENT Presentation Title DuPont Sorona® Polymer: A New Sustainable Platform for Growth Joseph V.

  • Part One Introduction
    1 Part One Introduction If you once enter in the world of polymers, You will never leave it. T. Tsuruta 3 1 Introduction 1.1 Milestones in the Development of Polymer Science Regarding its subject of study, polymer science belongs to the oldest fields of science (existing since the times when living cells appeared), while as a separate, well-defined science it was formulated less than 100 years ago – between 1920 and 1930 – thanks to the pioneering works of the German chemist Hermann Staudinger (Figure 1.1). Polymer materials have always been used by human beings without having any idea what differs these materials from the others. The situation did not change even when the first synthetic polymer material was prepared around 1910 by Leo Baekeland –Bakelite.1 First, Baekeland produced soluble phenol-formaldehyde shellac called “Novolak”, but later he succeeded in preparing a hard plastic material. Bakelite continues to be used for wire insulation, brake pads and related automotive components, and industrial electric-related applications. Bakelite stock is still manufactured and produced in sheet, rod and tube form for industrial applications in the electronics, power generation, and aerospace industries, and under a variety of commercial brand names. Baekeland was a very talented chemist with an extremely strong feeling for commercially important products. But as a matter of fact, he did not contribute to the creation of polymer science in any theoretical aspect such as, for example, 1 Baekeland was already a wealthy person due to successful sales of his first serious discovery – the photographic paper Velox. E. Kodak, the designer of the first photographic camera, was so impressed by the new material that he immediately signed a check of one million dollars! In this way Baekeland, who expected to get at least US$ 10 000, was able to organize at home a chemical laboratory with all necessary equipment.
