The development of plastics also reflects economic history. Restrictions on imported latex, wool, silk and other natural materials to Europe during the Second World War resulted in the rapid development of alternative synthetic plastics. Table 1 shows that between 1935 and 1945, many new polymers were introduced including polyethylene, polyamides, poly(methyl methacrylate), polyurethanes, poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), silicones, epoxies, polytetrafluoro-ethylene and polystyrene. Polyethylene was incorporated into radar systems while PVC replaced the limited stocks of natural rubber as cable insulation. [Pg.185]
