Abstract | Japan is as strong as the U.S. and Europe in the field of plastics these days. However, it was the U.S. and Europe that discovered and developed plastics; Japa just followed them. An exceptional case was the Nylon 9T (PA9T) that was developed by Kuraray. The publication shows how the projects that began with various motives went through various failures, and came to create a new successful project. |
