Bill Pittendreigh, DuPont, and other individuals and corporations worked diligently during the first few months of Word War II to find a way to replace Asian silk and hemp with nylon in parachutes. It was also used to make tires, tents, ropes, ponchos, and other military supplies. It was even used in the production of a high-grade paper for U.S currency. At the outset of the war, cotton accounted for more than 80% of all fibers used and manufactured, and wool fibers accounted for the remaining 20%. By August 1945, manufactured fibers had taken a market share of 25% and cotton had dropped. Some of the terpolymers based upon nylon are used every day in packaging. Nylon has been used for meat wrapping and sausage sheaths.
