When the chemists discovered a new type of substance, they knew that it was nylon and not some other synthetic.
Chemists should not be capitalized if it is not a proper noun.

"Discovering a new type of substance, that had never before been known, the chemist knew it was nylon and not some other synthetic." Try this, it seems to maintain the same essential meaning and I think it's a bit clearer.

I guess you want the sentence re-worded?
OK.
The sentence doesn't make sense, actually - you cannot discover something that has never been known before and at the same time know that it was nylon and not something else. So, I'd say...
The Chemists discovered the substance was not new, but rather nylon.

I wish you would've told us what exactly you need done with this, but here goes:
When the chemists discovered the substance, they knew it was nylon.
(The rest is redundant and extraneous.)
