Nylon
Nylon:
Nylon is a synthetic material made from polymer. Developed in 1935 by Wallace Hume Carothers, it was the first synthetic fiber made exclusively from carbon, water and air.
The properties of nylon are special. It is elastic, tear-resistant, stable and particularly stretchy. Furthermore, nylon can absorb energy better than other textiles.
Nylon has many uses. Due to its tear resistance and dimensional stability even under high pressure, nylon is used in the manufacture of hot air balloons, parachutes and ropes. As nylon can be processed as a breathable textile, it is also used for clothing such as blouses and sportswear, but also for cushions and blankets.
