German company sells 'liquid wood'
“Two German scientists invented “liquid wood,” which has the potential to save significant fossil fuel and natural resources. How about a renewable plastic that has wood-like qualities but can be cast by a machine? A group of scientists at the Fraunhofer Institute for Chemical Technology in Pfinztal near Karlsruhe invented just that in the late 1990s.” http://www.spacemart.com/reports/German_company_sells_liquid_wood_999.html
