5 NOS tubes DuPont Harrison ‘Pure Oil Color’ artists paint Chrome Green.The name most commonly applied in the nineteenth century to a composite pigment where Prussian blue was precipitated on chrome yellow. Field adds that this term is used for ‘compounds of chromate of lead with Prussian blue and other blue colours.’ Chrome green also designated the pigment green chromium oxide, but which was distinguished from composite pigments of the same name by the terms Native green or True green The tubes are in great shaperough but is sealed and the paint is still in liquid form. Squeezing the tube reveals that it is still quite pliable. Harrison paints were established in Philadelphia in 1793 and was acquired by DuPont in 1917. E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Company is a chemical company, commonly referred to as the DuPont Company which was established in 1802 by French immigrants Pierre Samuel du Pont de Nemours (1739-1817) and his son Eleuthe?re Ire?ne?e ?E.I.? du Pont (1771-1834). The company began as a manufacturer of gunpowder. The du Pont?s purchased a mill on the banks of the Brandywine River just north of Wilmington, Delaware and named the site Eleutherian Mills. In 1813, du Pont purchased neighboring land which had been called Hagley. He retained the name and the area became known as Hagley Yards. In 1837, E.I. du Pont?s son Alfred V. du Pont (1798-1856) became President of the company. By 1850 Alfred resigned and his younger brother Henry du Pont (1812-1889) succeeded him as President.In 1857, Alfred?s son Lammot du Pont (1831-1884) developed B blasting powder, using Chilean sodium nitrate instead of the previously used potassium nitrate (saltpeter) from India. This process would later influence the company?s decision to purchase lands in Chile.After the Civil War, the DuPont company had two major competitors, the Hazard Powder Company, and Laflin & Rand Powder Company. DuPont took over the Hazard Powder Company in 1876. Laflin & Rand and the DuPont Company partnered in a joint venture which was spearheaded by Lammot du Pont, who in 1880 incorporated the Repauno Chemical Company to manufacture dynamite. His cousin William du Pont (1855-1928), Henry?s son, was appointed to help Lammot with the company. After Lammot’s death in an explosion on March 29, 1884, William became president until resigning in 1892.In 1890, at the request of the U.S. government, the E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Company started scientific research on smokeless powder. The DuPont Company began the manufacture of smokeless powder at its new works at Carney’s Point, New Jersey, in 1891-1893.Inventor and chemist Hudson Maxim (1853-1927), sold many of his explosives and smokeless gunpowder patents to DuPont in 1897. DuPont established a laboratory for him where he continued to produce inventions relating to explosives, ordnance, and torpedoes through the 1910s.In 1889 Eugene du Pont took over from Henry as President of the company until his death in 1902. After Eugene?s death the DuPont Company was in danger of folding and being bought out by its competitor, Laflin & Rand, when three du Pont cousins; T. Coleman, Pierre S. and Alfred I. purchased the company. T. Coleman du Pont became President and DuPont took control of Laflin & Rand, including the Haskell Works which manufactured Infallible and Ballistite powders.Hamilton Barksdale (1862-1918) , J. Amory Haskell (1861-1923), and Harry G. Haskell (1870-1951) were three key members of DuPont?s Executive Committee. Barksdale became the director of the High Explosives Department, which included research operations at Repauno?s Eastern Laboratory. J.A. Haskell helped found the Eastern Laboratory and hired chemist Dr. Charles L. Reese (1862-1940), who was the first director of the laboratory and a pioneer of explosives research. H.G. Haskell worked at Repauno, was a DuPont vice president, a member of the Executive Committee and served on the company’s Board of Directors.Throughout the early 1900s DuPont expanded considerably. In 1903 DuPont established the Experimental Station, a research facility located across from DuPont’s first black powder works. The Parlin, New Jersey site was acquired in 1904 to manufacture paint and photographic products. In 1904, DuPont purchased the Judson Dynamite and Powder Company in California, which operated until August 1905, when there was a dynamite explosion and fire. The plant was dismantled and the property sold. In 1905, Barksdale Explosives Plant in Wisconsin was established to produce dynamite and other explosives for the military during World Wars I and II, and for the mining industry. The Louviers, Colorado plant began production of dynamite in 1908 and provided explosives primarily for mines in the region. Hopewell Works in Virginia was established in 1912 to manufacture dynamite, however, the onset of World War I created a great demand for guncotton. In 1915, Hopewell was converted for that purpose and became the largest guncotton plant in the world. After the war, the plant was sold off for other uses. In 1914, a dye works was constructed at Deepwater Point, New Jersey to enter the market for dyes left vacant by Germany’s absence. In 1945 the plant name was changed to the Chambers Works.With renewed interest in the nitrate industry Pierre S. du Pont and financial executive, John Raskob (1879-1950) traveled to Chile in 1902 and determined that the company should establish an office there to deal directly with suppliers. In 1909, they purchased nitrate mines and began operating their own company.Although Pierre had been acting President since 1909 it was not official until 1915 when T. Coleman du Pont retired. Later that year Pierre looked into purchasing the Norwegian Nitrate Company. He wanted to form the American Nitrate Company and acquire the North American rights of the Norwegian Nitrate Company, however, was unable to due to electrical power restraints.A government suit was brought against the DuPont Company in 1907 and in 1911, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the company had become a ?powder trust? and was in violation of the Sherman Act. DuPont dissolved portions of its explosives business and formed two new powder companies; Hercules and Atlas Powder Companies.As the United States entered World War I, DuPont was enlisted by the government to produce explosives for the Allied forces. Five plants were built to meet the need, the largest was in Old Hickory, Tennessee. The plant produced the raw materials for smokeless powder; sulfuric acid, nitric acid, and guncotton. The site was turned over to the government in 1919 and abandoned by 1923.Pierre retired in 1919 and Irenee du Pont (1876-1963) became President of the company. In 1920, the DuPont Fibersilk Company was established with a textile plant in Buffalo, New York. The product was named ?rayon? in 1924 and manufacture was expanded. Three plants were built in the south. DuPont purchased the abandoned Old Hickory plant to reconstruct it to manufacture rayon. There was a plant established in Richmond, Virginia and in 1928 the Waynesboro, Virginia plant opened.By 1926 DuPont officially dissolved the powder production unit, although it had already been inactive for many years. In 1926 Lammot du Pont II (1880-1952) succeeded his brother Irenee as company president. In the 1930s Lammot constructed the first nylon plants in Belle, West Virginia. The company continued to expand its scientific chemical research and innovations.
