18、ection.

25、e one thing it is not, is transparent! Now thanks to a team of scientists at Stockholms KTH Royal Institute of Technology, the material may even be able to add that feature to its already impressive list.Lead researcher, Dr. Lars Berglund said he was inspired to create the transparent wood after lea
26、rning how Japanese researchers had developed a see-through paper for use in flexible display screens for electronic devices. The team began by pulling out the woods lignin(木质素). The lignin-free wood was then dipped into a polymer(聚合物)and baked at a temperature of 158F for four hours. The result was
27、a hybrid product that was not only stronger and lighter than the original wood but also, almost transparent. The researchers were able to adjust the level of transparency by varying the amount of the polymer injected and also by changing the thickness of the wood.While scientists have previously cre
28、ated a see-through wood for small-scale applications like computer chips, the transparent wood is the first one being considered for large scale applications.

30、emitransparent material would be able to keep light longer and give it more time to interact with the conductor, thus resulting in better solar efficiency. Additionally, substituting the currently used glass with this new product would help solar energy manufacturers improve their carbon footprint and lower the cost. They are now experimenting with ways to scale up the manufactur
