I've just read a very interesting article - wanted to share it here. It's a couple weeks old, so please forgive me if you've already seen this. ;)
'The Surprising Possibilities of See-Through Wood' .....
@Dreamnghrt That’s cool, reminded me of the flexible glass story from Rome.
@Dreamnghrt I haven't gotten over transparent aluminum (Aluminium oxynitride) being a thing!
Transparent wood? Mind blown! As a biologist, I'm intrigued by it's original purpose. :)
Unfortunately, while the researchers converted the petroleum epoxy to a lemon peel source, I doubt that mass production will stick to that process because of availability, cost and volume. Also I'd like to see it's breakdown timeline/by products. Still, it's remarkable. :) Thanks for sharing!
