Creation of Synthetic Fibres

Aldo von Passau was currently within the Chemistry lab, with a team of chemists by his side. For quite some time now, he had been experimenting with two chemicals that he had recently discovered. Diamine Acid, which was made from Austria's limited crude oil deposits, as well as the water based dicarboxylic acid. At the moment, he was carefully pouring an equal mixture of the two substances.

In doing so, the Diamine Acid rose to the top of the mixture due to it being based upon oil, causing the two substances to create an obvious divide. However, an interesting reaction occurred in center of the two substances as the mixture settled.

A small film of a new material appeared. Aldo von Passau did not know it at this time, but he had just created Nylon, which was an important material in the manufacture of military equipment. Upon seeing the strange reaction, the man barked orders at one of his subordinates as he witnessed this strange reaction.
