It was created in 1935 by a group of scientists led by Wallace Carothers, who worked at the American chemical company DuPont over polyamides. They tried to develop a commercially beneficial material with silk properties. A solid and transparent substance was discovered accidentally from a heated mixture of coal tar, ethyl alcohol, and water. The essence was subsequently named polyamide-6.6.
