Molecular model of ethylene oxide—one of the basic building blocks in Union Carbide's chemistry.
Helping to shape the future
Ever wonder what's behind the steady stream of new and better
products we enjoy today? The answer is research by men and women with
driving curiosity and bold imagination.
Synthetic chemicals created by the people of Union Carbide
have helped make possible the latest wonder drugs, glamorous textiles,
work-saving detergents, and fast-drying paints and lacquers. And in the
ever-changing world of plastics, the work of Union Carbide scientists has
helped bring you everything from scuff-resistant flooring and unbreakable
phonograph records to transparent polyethylene wrapping that preserves
the original flavor of foods.
These innovations are only a suggestion of the wonderful things
that will come from tomorrow's research... the kind of research that's being
carried out constantly in the laboratories of Union Carbide.
