Focus Description:

An ordinary newspaper is attached to a fireproof stand. If it is carefully set on fire, it will burn, but not all. The stand will be left with a clear newspaper appliqué of your chosen design (such as a moon or a flower).

Focus secret:

How to achieve this? Requires advance preparation. Make a stencil of an object whose silhouette is pronounced. Apply the stencil to the newspaper and thoroughly soak the entire volume with a solution of natural alum. They will give the newspaper fire resistance. Pin the newspaper to the stand. The solution is not visible after drying. Push the button into the upper part of the silhouette. Bring a burning match from below - the newspaper will burn, and the impregnated silhouette will remain intact.

If you add potassium nitrate to the alum solution and turn off the light, your application will sparkle in the dark.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Self-healing synthetic material 28.03.2001

Scientists at the University of Illinois (USA) announced the invention of a new synthetic material capable of self-healing.

In the course of research in the field of composites, scientists came up with the idea of filling them with microscopic capsules containing a special filling substance and a catalyst. When the smallest cracks appear in the material, the capsules burst and release a substance that fills the resulting space. As soon as the filling substance reacts with the catalyst, polymerization occurs and the damaged area is repaired.

In the tests carried out, the mechanical characteristics of the material were restored by 75%. Currently, scientists are experimenting with various composites, which include from 15 to 30 capsules per square centimeter. Experiments show that products made from this material are many times more durable than those made from a conventional composite.

The new material is not yet ready for industrial use. However, experts are already predicting its use in various fields - from the production of tennis rackets and artificial joints to spacecraft.
