Alfred Nobel worked alongside his father, and by 1850, when he was 17; Alfred had acquired most of his father’s knowledge of an enthusiasm for chemistry Although numerous other scientists had been intrigued
by nitroglycerine, Alfred was one who finally managed to turn this dangerous substance into a safe and useful explosive He succeeded in developing dynamite commercially, which laid the foundation for many of the world's leading chemical enterprises Aside from introducing the innovative Nobel Ignitron in 1864 and dynamite in 1866, Alfred claimed 355 patents including nitrocellulose and substitutes for leather and rubber He developed clever methods for the production of synthetic silk and was involved in electro-chemicals, telecommunications, and safety alarm systems as well
