DuPont purchased Laflin & Rand in 1902, and American “E.C.” & “Schultze” Powder Company in 1903.
In 1912 under the Sherman Antitrust Act, Laflin & Rand was dissolved and DuPont was split into DuPont Powder Co. (later DuPont American Industries), Hercules Powder Co. (which retained “Infallible”, “E.C.” and “Schultze”) and Atlas Powder Co.
L&R “Orange Extra” black powder was still offered in the 1927 “Hercules Sporting Powders” booklet.
