The beginning of the twentieth century witnessed the birth of a novel class of materials, the synthetic polymers based on monomers derived from fossil resources, but the progress associated with them was relatively slow up to the Second World War and did not affect substantially the production and scope of the naturally based counterparts. Some hybrid materials, arising from the copolymerization between both types of monomers were also developed at this stage as in the case of the first alkyd resins. Interestingly, both monomers used in the first process to synthesize nylon in the late 1930s were prepared from furfural, an industrial commodity obtained from renewable resources, in a joint venture between Quaker Oats and DuPont. 

Polyurethane leather substitute and nylon-6 meltvinyl fabrics were treated with elastomeric polycarbonates, such as polytetramethylene glycol-bisphenol A-phosgene polymer, poly(ethylene adipate)-4,4 -dihydroxydiphenyl-methane-phosgene polymer, or ethylene bis(p-hydroxybenzoate)-polytetra-methylene glycol-phosgene polymer to give products with improved abrasion resistance and flexural strength [253]. 

Furfural, obtained by the steam-acid digestion of corn cobs, bagasse, rice hulls, and oat hulls, acts as the precurser to hexa-methylene diamine and adipic acid, the latter two utilized to form nylon-66.
