James O. Maloney is Professor Emeritus of the Department of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering, University of Kansas. He holds a Ph.D. degree in chemical engineering from Pennsylvania State University. In 1941 he began liis professional career at the DuPont de Nemours Company, before joining the University of Kansas in 1945, where he taught for 40 years. He served as department chairman for nineteen years. He is a fellow of the AIChE.

The dimethylformamide is available as technical grade DMF from the Grasselli Chemicals Department of E. I. duPont de Nemours and Company, Wilmington, Delaware. 

Technical grade DMF is available from the Grasselli Chemicals Department of E. I. duPont de Nemours and Company. The 1,4-dichlorobutane was obtained from the Electrochemicals Department, E. I. duPont de Nemours and Company. Technical Baker and Adamson fused chip sodium sulfide assaying 60% sodium sulfide was used. The checkers obtained somewhat lower yields when the appropriate amount of reagent grade Na2S OHjO was employed instead of the technical material. 

Polychloroprene rubber (CR) is the most popular and versatile of the elastomers used in adhesives. In the early 1920s, Dr. Nieuwland of the University of Notre Dame synthesized divinyl acetylene from acetylene using copper(l) chloride as catalyst. A few years later, Du Pont scientists joined Dr. Nieuwland s research and prepared monovinyl acetylene, from which, by controlled reaction with hydrochloric acid, the chloroprene monomer (2-chloro-l, 3-butadiene) was obtained. Upon polymerization of chloroprene a rubber-like polymer was obtained. In 1932 it was commercialized under the tradename DuPrene which was changed to Neoprene by DuPont de Nemours in 1936.
