{"product_id":"shimmering-wood","title":"Shimmering wood","description":"Structural colour refers to the colouring that arises from the interaction of light with nanostructures.\u003cbr\u003eFor example, the vivid, shiny, metallic-looking blue colour on the surface of\u003cbr\u003emorpho butterflies' wing is created when light interacts with nanostructures, resulting in\u003cbr\u003ethe perception of colour by the human eye. Shiny and glittery colour effects are linked to\u003cbr\u003estructural colours; however, they are often produced using materials made from metals,\u003cbr\u003eplastics, minerals or their combinations. The need for renewable, environmentally friendly\u003cbr\u003ecolourants is growing, and in this context, the possibility of making bio-based structural\u003cbr\u003ecolours has also received attention.\u003cbr\u003eThis thesis researches nanocellulose-based structural colour (CNC SC) through the\u003cbr\u003eShimmering Wood material development case. The project is an interdisciplinary collaboration\u003cbr\u003ebetween design and materials science. CNC SC has been studied since the 1990s, but\u003cbr\u003ethe research has mainly focused on the colourant's technical properties and applications,\u003cbr\u003esuch as developing various optical sensors. Meanwhile, the aesthetics and appearance of\u003cbr\u003ethe colourant have not received the same attention.","brand":"Aalto-yliopiston taiteiden ja suunnittelun korkeakoulu","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51443643810139,"sku":"9789526425481","price":52.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/suomalainen-test.myshopify.com\/products\/shimmering-wood","provider":"Suomalainen Test","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
