dbo:abstract Hercules Inc. war ein amerikanischer Chemie- und Munitionshersteller. Sie wurde 1882 als Hercules Powder Company von DuPont und der Laflin & Rand Powder Company gegründet. Später entstand durch Entflechtung (als Antitrustmaßnahme) die Hercules Inc., welche einer der größten amerikanischen Hersteller von rauchlosem Pulver wurde. Bei der Aufspaltung erhielt DuPont die Patente für Nitrocellulose-Schießpulver und Hercules die Patente für die kombinierten Nitrocellulose-Nitroglycerin-Pulver. Während der 1960er Jahre stellte das Unternehmen die Feststoffraketentriebwerke für die atomare Kurzstreckenrakete MGR-1 Honest John her. 2008 wurde Hercules von Ashland Inc. übernommen. (de) Hercules, Inc. was a chemical and munitions manufacturing company based in Wilmington, Delaware, United States, incorporated in 1912 as the Hercules Powder Company following the breakup of the DuPont explosives monopoly by the U.S. Circuit Court in 1911. Hercules Powder Company became Hercules, Inc. in 1966, operating under this name until 2008, when it was merged into Ashland Inc. An earlier Hercules Powder Company was formed in 1882 by DuPont and Laflin & Rand Powder Company. This company was dissolved on June 30, 1904. Hercules was one of the major producers of smokeless powder for warfare in the United States during the 20th century. At the time of its spin-off, the DuPont Corp. retained the processes and patents for the production of "single-base" nitrocellulose gunpowders, whereas Hercules was given the patents and processes for the production of "double-base" gunpowders that combined nitrocellulose and nitroglycerine.

(fr) ハーキュリーズ(Hercules Incorporated)は、アメリカ合衆国にあった化学会社。現在はアシュランド傘下となっている。 源流は、1861年、南北戦争における北軍への火薬供給逼迫に対応して設立された火薬会社California Powder Works(カリフォルニア火薬製造)に遡る。「ハーキュリーズ」を商標とする黒色火薬が有名で、その工場を中心とした企業城下町にもハーキュリーズという名が付けられた(ただしここでは黒色火薬でなく主にダイナマイトを生産した)。1903年には、東海岸を本拠とするデュポンに買収、合併された。 しかし1912年、デュポンの火薬事業は反トラスト法違反で有罪とされて分割され、その一部が独立してハーキュリーズ社となった。その後、ハーキュリーズはアメリカの代表的火薬会社として発展し、第二次大戦後は固体燃料ロケットにも参入した。その後兵器関連事業は奮わなくなったが、代わりに特殊化学品、特に水処理・製紙関連事業等へ多角化した。 当時は炭素繊維ベースの複合材料(カーボンコンポジット)の製造・加工などに強みを持ち、1980年代にはマクラーレンを始めとする多くのF1チームから、レースで使用するフォーミュラカーのモノコック製造を請け負ったことなどでも知られる。 2008年、アシュランドに買収・合併されたが、現在も水処理事業のグループ会社アシュランド・ハーキュリーズ・ウォーター・テクノロジーズに名を残している。 (ja) A Hercules, Inc. foi uma empresa de manufatura norte-americana nas áreas de produtos químicos e munição, sediada em Wilmington, no Delaware, incorporada em 1912 como Hercules Powder Company após a queda do monopólio de explosivos da Du Pont pela dos EUA em 1911. A Hercules Powder Company tornou-se Hercules, Inc. em 1966, operando sob esse nome até 2008, quando foi incorporada à Ashland Inc. Uma Hercules Powder Company anterior foi formada em 1882 pela DuPont e pela Laflin & Rand Powder Company. Esta empresa foi dissolvida em 30 de junho de 1904. A Hercules foi um dos principais produtores de pólvora sem fumaça para guerra nos Estados Unidos durante o século XX. No momento da sua cisão, a DuPont Corp. reteve os processos e patentes para a produção de pólvoras de nitrocelulose "de base única", enquanto a Hercules recebeu patentes e processos para a produção de pólvoras de "base dupla" que combinavam nitrocelulose e nitroglicerina.
