Stephanie Kwolek 1923 - 2014



You may not be familiar with her face, but you're very familiar with her invention, poly-paraphenylene terephthalamide...

KEVLAR Inventor Stephanie Kwolek Dies At 90

What a great life's work.

RIP Ms. Kwolek

  2. Sue Hanes: We do need more like. Think of the lives she saved over the years. BTW Kevlar is also used in sports equipment, but there is no telling what other fields it will help.
