	[[File:Wallacecarothers.jpg\|300px\|right\|thumb]] Wallace Carothers was a chemist who worked at Dupont Chemical Company. Carothers's work and invention is the encapsulation of what science means. Wallace Carothers is attributed with the ~~accidental~~ discovery of nylon through his work with polymers. He also laid the groundwork for another one of the most widely used synthetic polymer-- neoprene.

	'''[[File:nylonad.jpg\|left\|thumb]]''' In 1928, Carothers joined Dupont Chemical Company working in a lab explicitly created for basic research. More specifically, research focused on developing artificial materials. His first development was neoprene, a synthetic rubber. Following this discovery, in 1934, Carothers and his group discovered a nylon. Carothers introduced knowledge of natural polymers to the entire world. Nylon and neoprene were both two of the most important polymers of the 20th century.
