ICIS Training team in Philadelphia

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

The ICIS Training team is in Philadelphia, USA, using the premises of the Chemical Heritage Foundation for the Introduction to Petrochemicals courses. Peter has taken a few shots of the delegates enjoying a tour of the Foundation's new museum, where they heard some interesting stories about the development of Bakelite, nylon and Gore-Tex. Peter was also rather taken with a wedding dress made soon after the Second World War from a nylon parachute, not to mention the stockings.
