Ever wonder how the public gets a product that the military has been using for over a decade? You might be surprised to learn that a majority of the products you use every day actually originated in government contracts with companies that initially created said products. Take the military specs chemicals from Los Angeles, CA. These chemicals were the dreams and brain babies of military personnel, fostered by military research and funded by government money. After the government had access to and use of these military specs chemicals from Los Angeles for several years, the chemicals then became available to industrial plants and the public.
Cyanoacrylate Was Originally a Military Chemical
Cyanoacrylate, otherwise known as “super glue”, was created by Eastman Kodak and sold to the military for their purposes. Years later it became a well-known and publicly sold the product. Today, super glue is a billion-dollar industry with companies striving to find a faster drying and stronger glue than anybody else. The military still uses super glue in some capacity or other.
Synthetic Rubber and Silly Putty
Almost all rubber products have come from the original synthetic rubber and silly putty chemicals. If it stretches, bounces, and rarely snaps in pieces, the government wants it. The public needs it for cars and trucks now, but silly putty has also become a popular kids’ toy. Many other chemicals continue to be part of the government contracts owned by multiple companies, including this company in L.A.
