Biography

Carleton’s maternal grandmother was Margaret Culpepper, whose sister was the mother of Queen Catherine Howard. His father was at first receiver to the abbot of Westminster and later deputy receiver-general to the dean and chapter. This enabled the son to enjoy a Westminster abbey exhibition at Christ Church. Carleton spent his early years at Walton-on-Thames, where he acquired his father’s property, although this had been conveyed to his younger brother Edward by 1568. He inherited from his father lands in Cambridgeshire and Huntingdonshire; acquired through his second marriage estates in Oxfordshire and Northamptonshire (including the manor of Overstone, where he chiefly resided), and purchased extensive lands in Gloucestershire. In 1576 he was granted the stewardship of the duchy of Lancaster manor of Wollaston, Northants., where 12 years before he and George Burden had acquired the reversion and rent of the rectory. He seems to have secured the stewardship for his step-son Anthony Cope, who,

First synthetic plastic

Chemical compound

Bakelite (BAY-kə-lyte), formally poly­oxy­benzyl­methylene­glycol­anhydride, is a thermosettingphenol formaldehyde resin, formed from a condensation reaction of phenol with formaldehyde. The first plastic made from synthetic components, it was developed by Leo Baekeland in Yonkers, New York, in 1907, and patented on December 7, 1909.

Bakelite was one of the first plastic-like materials to be introduced into the modern world and was popular because it could be moulded and then hardened into any shape.

Because of its electrical nonconductivity and heat-resistant properties, it became a great commercial success. It was used in electrical insulators, radio and telephone casings, and such diverse products as kitchenware, jewelry, pipe stems, children's toys, and firearms.

The retro appeal of old Bakelite products has made them collectible.

The creation of a synthetic plastic was revolutionary for the chemical industry, which at the time made most of its income from cloth dyes and explosives. Bakelite's commercial success inspired the industry to develop other synthetic plastics. As the world's first commercial synthetic plastic, Bakelite was named a National Historic Chemical Landmark by the American Chemical Society.

History

Bakelite was produced for the first time in 1872 by Adolf von Baeyer, though its use as a commercial product was not considered at the time.

Leo Baekeland was already wealthy due to his invention of Velox photographic paper when he began to investigate the reactions of phenol and formaldehyde in his home laboratory. Chemists had begun to recognize that many natural resins and fibers were polymers. Baekeland's initial intent was to find a replacement for shellac, a material in limited supply because it was made naturally from the secretion of lac insects (specifically Ke
