Remembering Stephanie Kwolek
She was a Polish-American chemist who invented the polyparaphenylene terephthalamide known as Kevlar, a high strength fiber, golden color, which can be up to five times more resistant than steel and that is currently used in the production of bulletproof vests
Her career was full of achievements, including 17 patents and multiple awards as a publication in the Delaware Section Publication Award of the American Chemical Society
Stephanie Kwolek 1923 - 2014
"I guess that's just the life of an inventor: what people do with your ideas takes you totally by surprise"
"I hope I'm saving lives. There are very few people in their careers that have the opportunity to do something to benefit mankind"
