The author wishes to thank Roger Bacon and Leonard Singer, the two principal researchers on carbon fibers at Union Carbide Corporation in the 1960s and 1970s, who shared their memories in interviews with Judah Ginsberg. Thanks also go to the following scientists who gave freely of their time in interviews: Irwin Lewis, Richard Lewis, and Richard Greinke.

Drs. Bacon and Singer generously gave of their time to edit these pages, as did Dr. Helen Mayer of GrafTech International.
