Erasable paper on forefront of recycling
Researchers in California have developed a unique kind of
reusable paper on which ink and writing disappear, making
it the latest word in recycling. After the paper is used,
words and images reportedly fade after 16 to 24 hours, The
Mail on Sunday reported. One piece of paper can be used
up to 100 times, said experts at the Palo Alto Research
Center in California, where the paper is being developed
in collaboration with Xerox. The paper can reportedly be
made blank by exposing it to a heat source such as a light.
Researchers said they are looking for ways to have the
ink disappear without the use of a heat source. Xerox
has told customers they will need to buy a beam-powered
printer that is specially made for the erasable paper,
the newspaper said.
way cool. Wonder if they can do that to braille paper. lol
