Steve’s contributions in developing high performance polymers, designed to withhold increasingly high temperatures in things like automotive gaskets and hoses, has led him to become an award-winning scientist at DuPont. This innovator tackles some of the most intricate yet biggest problems in polymer dispersions for end products that require high integrity, the ability to withstand elements and stand the test of time. Yet these are things we don’t often, if at all, think about.

Join Steve as he takes you on an energetic, deep dive into polymer dispersion science, peeling back the processes that lead to trusted DuPont technologies that are found in a wide variety of everyday items from plastic trash bags to your personal car.

As a DuPont Business Development Manager, he’s solving problems before they arise. “I love big challenges and overcoming them,” Craig said. “I like working on the newest and latest technologies and even some that may not exist yet. I also love working for a global company and seeing how we can change the entire landscape. DuPont is different than other companies I’ve worked for.”

Inspired by her teams banding together to support one another in all corners of the world amid COVID-19, Vindhya Mishra, global technology manager for DuPont Transportation and Industrial, Engineering Polymers, is grateful for her role as a people manager—perhaps now more than ever.  

As an operational excellence specialist for DuPont Water Solutions, Michigan, Michelle Quider’s hyper-focused on pulling out all the stops to make employees’ work lives a little easier.

“I have the opportunity to work with teams and to help us grow that innovation muscle through new ways of thinking, new marketing techniques, and how to best get feedback from customers.”

“It’s not hard to do a job if the people you work with are talented.”

"DuPont really does a great job of being open to individuals that have different backgrounds."

"Our goal is to strengthen families, build communities, and empower the next generation."

"You can't do this job on your own. Teamwork is key to our success."

"With DuPont's core values, I know that generations will thrive for years to come."

"What makes DuPont truly unique is how we reinvented ourselves - and continue to do so."

"What really drives me is that the work I contributed at DuPont is going to have a significant impact on the environment around me."

"What's really rewarding for me is to create a platform where our veterans networks across the company can come together and achieve a common goal."

Meet Bradley Taylor, whose passion for high-tech printing led him to a technical development that dramatically improved the quality of a decades-old technology, flexography. Think colorful flexible packaging used to wrap grocery store meats, breads, snacks and other goodies. This innovation to flexography also lowered costs and reduced process time. But what exactly is flexography?

Join Brad as he reveals how this process to create vibrant, bold, eye-catching, flexible packaging comes down to four colorful dots designed to affect your visual perception in different ways. Or, as Brad puts it, what you see is not what’s there.

Meet DuPont Technical Laureate Shuhong Wang, whose lifelong love for understanding the intricacies how things work led her to become an award-winning polymer and material scientist at DuPont. Shuhong designs and develops new materials to solve big problems for our customers. Take O-rings for example. They’re common; found in your home and at hardware stores. So common yet so often unnoticeable, Shuhong says, until they aren’t working. This innovative technology is also found in industrial machinery, and that’s where Shuhong’s work in these intricate, high-performance systems becomes increasingly important. The bottom-line — this technology must be trusted every minute of every day.

Join this innovator as she takes you on a journey that is as inspiring as it is insightful and learn why her daughters call this tireless scientist Renaissance Mom.
