What is Kevlar: Insights and Applications about?

Stephanie Kwolek, a chemist working for DuPont, accidentally discovered Kevlar while attempting to develop a new type of strong fiber. Kevlar is a synthetic fiber five times stronger than steel and has since been used in bulletproof vests for police and military personnel as well as applications such as tires, cables, and boat hulls due to its strength and heat resistance. In 1994, Kwolek was inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame for her discovery of Kevlar.
