Furness

The change in policy by Courtaulds was fortunate for Vera Isabella Furness. Born on 2 June 1921, Furness attended a teacher training college and became a secondary school teacher. While teaching full-time, she studied for a B.Sc. (London) in chemistry through the Birmingham Central Technical College (later University of Aston), which she completed in 1946. Hired as a development chemist at BX Plastics, she undertook research towards an M.Sc., which she finished in 1948, followed by a Ph.D. in 1952. 

Furness s later research included the development of a process to make carbon fibres on an industrial scale for the Royal Aircraft Establishment. She progressed to become Section Leader, responsible for 100 graduate researchers. Her final appointment was Director and General Manager of the Courtaulds factory at Campsie, Northern Ireland, in 1978, from which she retired in 1981. She died on 8 June 2002, aged 81 years.

November 9,1994 at 4 39 pm, the first atom of the heaviest chemical atom with atomic number 110 was detected at the Gesellschaft fur Schwerionenforschung (GSI) in Darmstadt, in Germany. For the last ten years, this element has been the subject of an intense search by many laboratories world-wide. 

February 9,1996 at 10 37 pm, at the Gesellschaft fur Schwerionenforschung in Darmstadt, Germany a team of scientists discovered their sixth element. This element has the atomic number 112 and is currently the heaviest element ever produced by man. It has an atomic mass of 277.
