(Hercules Powder Company à l'origine) était une société américaine spécialisée dans la chimie et la fabrication de moteurs de fusées et de missiles basée à Wilmington dans le Delaware aux États-Unis. Fondée en 1912, elle est rachetée en 2008 par Ashland. Son usine à Magna (Utah) est pionnière dans la propulsion par carburant solide. Hercules Inc. a été une des productrices de l'agent orange. La société a été classée 787e dans le classement 2006 du magazine Fortune, avec un chiffre d'affaires de 2 068,8 millions de US$. (fr) 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.

(en) 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。 (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.
