Shingo Futamura. Shingo Futamura (April 3, 1938 -) is a rubber industry materials scientist noted for his concept of the deformation index.

Education 

Futamura completed his undergraduate Bachelor of Science degree at Waseda University in Japan.  He earned a master's degree from the University of Michigan in 1968.  He received his doctorate in polymer science from the University of Akron in 1975 under advisor Eberhard Meinecke.

Career 

By 1974, Futamura was appointed as a group leader of polymer physics at Firestone Central Research in Akron, Ohio. During a career spanning over 40 years, Futamura authored 25 scientific papers and 50 US patents. He worked for Nippon Zeon Co., Firestone Tire & Rubber Company, and Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company.

He is best known for proposing the concept of a deformation index to relate viscoelastic properties to real-world tire performance. The concept is used to select rubber compounds that minimize tire rolling resistance, and it is used in finite element analysis to simplify the calculation of energy loss and temperature distribution.

Zacua MX3. The Zacua MX3 is an electric microcar produced and marketed by Zacua. Introduced in 2017, it is the company's first vehicle.

History 
The concept of the first ever domestic electric car in the history of the Mexican automotive industry was created in mid-2017, when Zacua was founded in Mexico City. It entered into a partnership with the French microcar manufacturer Automobiles Chatenet, resulting in a fully electric Mexican counterpart called the MX3. The premiere of the vehicle took place right after the company was founded, in August 2017.

The MX3 is distinguished by two-tone body paint, plastic body trim, as well as round headlights and taillights. The handles are hidden behind the door edges, with a special recess. The MX3 was created for the domestic Mexican market, where the cars were offered to buyers from the second half of 2018. Production started at the Puebla plant in May 2018, with prices starting at 550,000 pesos.

MX2

In addition to the MX3, Zacua has also expanded its offer with a coupe variant with a gently sloping roof and a stepped rear end, known as the MX2. It received the same technical specification as the MX3.

Specifications
The Spanish company Dynamik Technological Alliance provided the development of the fully electric drive system, while the batteries are supplied from a Chinese producer. The Zacua MX3 and MX2 are characterized by a 46 HP engine and a 15.6 kWh battery. This allows them to travel about  on a single charge.

Ault & Wiborg Company. The Ault & Wiborg Company was a manufacturer of printing inks that operated independently from 1878 to 1928. Founded in Cincinnati, Ohio, by Levi Addison Ault and Frank Bestow Wiborg, it expanded until its operations in multiple cities made it the world's largest ink manufacturer of its day.

The firm prospered with the development of colored inks based on coal-dye tars and the introduction of lithography.

As part of its marketing efforts, the company commissioned elaborate posters and magazine advertisements, the latter particularly for The Printing Art and The Inland Printer. Among the artists who produced works for the company were Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (in 1896; he was also a customer, using the company's inks for his own works), Will H. Bradley (the "dean of American designers", he produced several dozen of the posters from 1895 to about 1900); and Louis Rhead (at least one, in 1896). Many of these designs have been collected by noted institutions, including the National Museum of American History, Library of Congress, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and more. In 1902, the company published a book reproducing some 100 of these posters.

Ault was still running Ault & Wiborg in 1928 when he sold his interest for $14 million ($ today), allowing it to be merged with Queen City Printing Inks and Philip Ruxton Co. to form the International Printing Ink Corp. The company was renamed Interchemical Corp. in 1938. It was sold in 1968 to the Carrier Corporation and then in 1985 to BASF.

1,1-Dichloro-1,2-difluoroethane. 1,1-Dichloro-1,2-difluoroethane (also known as HCFC-132c or R-132c) is a hydrochlorofluorocarbon. It is a volatile derivative of ethane. It appears as a colourless, odorless non-flammable liquid. The use of HCFC-132c is restricted by the US EPA through the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 which intend to phase-out the use of substances that deplete the ozone layer. HCFC-132c is cited as an ozone depleting substance; it is considered as a class II substance by the EPA.

Charles S. Schollenberger. Charles Sundy Schollenberger (August 8, 1922 - January 25, 2002) was an American chemist. He invented the first thermoplastic polyurethane (Estane).

Early life

Schollenberger was born in 1922, on the campus of the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center in Wooster, to agronomist Charles Jay and Anne (Sundy) Schollenberger. His childhood interest in chemistry began when his father let him perform experiments in his lab.

Schollenberger graduated from Wooster High School in 1940.  He earned an AB degree in chemistry from the College of Wooster in 1943.  He completed his doctoral degree in organic chemistry in 1947 at Cornell University.

On October 15, 1949, he married Katharine Rosanne Kennon. In 2009, son Charles David Schollenberger set up the Charles Schollenberger Arboretum Visitors Center Biological Lab Endowment at Ohio State University.

Career 

Schollenberger was hired at B. F. Goodrich in 1947 by Waldo Semon, helping to open a new research center in Brecksville, Ohio in 1948.  In 1952, Schollenberger patented the first thermoplastic polyurethane. He continued developing the product until 1958 when the new material debuted under the trade name Estane. It is a strong, flexible, abrasion-resistant material that was used in textile coatings, tennis shoe soles, automobile parts, as well as magnetic tape.  Schollenberg was promoted to R&D Fellow - the highest research position at Goodrich in 1975. He was a prolific inventor, with 18 U.S. and 10 foreign patents. Schollenberger retired in 1984, when Estane accounted for roughly one third of specialty chemical sales at the company.
