Duco was a trade name assigned to a product line of automotive lacquer developed by the DuPont Company in the 1920s. Under the Duco brand, DuPont introduced the first quick drying multi-color line of nitrocellulose lacquers made especially for the automotive industry. It was also used in paintings by American artist Jackson Pollock. It is now used by Nexa Autocolor — formerly ICI Autocolor and now a division of Pittsburgh-based PPG Industries — as a tradename for automotive enamels in Asia. ''Duco'' is still used as an Australian colloquialism for automotive paint. Also in Romania the term was in use with the same meaning until beginning of 2000. It was (and partly still is) used in Hungarian as ''dukkó'' (noun) and ''dukkóz'' (verb). ''Duco'' is the finish applied to National String Instrument Corporation brand of resonator guitars ca. 1930. ''Duco coated'' is used in the plumbing industry to describe lacquered floor drains and other similar products. Duco is also a brand of nitrocellulose household cement originally trademarked by DuPont and now marketed in the U.S. by ITW Devcon. DUCO is a world leader in the design and manufacture of subsea umbilical cable systems.〔http://www.technip.com/en/entities/duco〕 It is a subsidiary of the Technip Group, under the trademark 'Technip Umbilical Systems'. The name ''Duco'' originates from ''Dunlop'' and ''Coflexip'',〔http://www.worksmart.org.uk/company/company.php?id=02400155〕 when the Coflexip-Stena Offshore group acquired the subsea umbilical systems activity of the Dunlop group. The company has 4 locations: Newcastle (UK), Houston (USA), Lobito (Angola), and Tanjung-Langsat (Malaysia). ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Duco」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
