Remember Wrinkleman?

He went out of style with radio mystery shows and the wide brim hat. And was out for good with the introduction of polyester stay-pressed fabrics. That's where we came in, with the first para-xylene as a raw material for polyester. But that was just the beginning. We're producers

of butadiene for synthetic rubber. Polybutenes for treating leather. Alpha olefins for vinyl plasticizers. Meta-xylene for textile dyes. And detergent intermediates designed to clean clothes
