      From: treon3verdery@gmail.com              Lifesavers looking ultrasonic piezo transducer       Reflector on farthest from water side,        Vacuum cleaners, but especially steam cleaners could have piezoelectric       transducers on their rolling bars to blast material off the carpet, this works       better at moist surface contact like steamcleaned carpet, the piezoelectric       operates above the range of        hearing of people and companion animals       A glove with an ultrasonic element above human hearing range might be able to       open tight jars, or not              Powerbank put two or even 3 usb plugs from different manufacturers at any       powerbank over 5000 amps, make one of the usb board ports 360 rotateable like       an rj45 product i saw, diamond peen case cheaply to increase scuff resistant              Thingy: on indicator LEDs could have a pattern like a bicycle reflector QR       code leds etched on them so that they would light cast model number,       manufacturer and website to a surface 3-14 inches away when a phone image was       made, this would look like        glowing bike reflector glitteriness to a person looking at the indicator light              Baby diapers and adult diapers could be improved with laser texturing or warm       embossing to have microtroughs and sensationless or velvelt like water       shedding micropillars all over the inner surface except next to hydrating pad       areas where the pores are        lined with insulating hydrophilic troughs              Toilet tissue could have the felted thin flat layer be soaked in a shorter       fiber solution that was gelatinized momentarily with acid and embossed with       hydrophilic troughs and hydrophobic pillars on opposite sides so water was       repelled from reaching the        back from the middle, a two ply highly absorbent top with pillars in the       middle and back surface pointing inward that keep the back of the toilet paper       or facial tissue dry, this could be as affordable as generic toilet paper as       it is just 2 ply with        pressed gelatinous woodpulp stage microcolumns and microtroughs, an enhanced       fluid soak up without soak-through makes it possible to use less paper pulp at       an equivalent to thicker toilet paper performance, making the tp more       affordable and ecologically        beneficial              There are many ways to cheaply effect absorbency and strength of toilet paper,       paper towels and other wiping paper products, one approach is to put particles       of white bismuth hydroxide in the paper pulp and then exposing the wet paper       being formed to a        high intensity magnetic fields that oscillate, moving the highly diamagnetic       bismuth hydroxide around, making paper fiber lumens, and at egg crate standing       waves, doubled (or higher) surface area, enhancing moisture absorption or at       the back of toilet        tissue, greater density and smoothness, laser peening could have smoothness       and reduced water soak through at the back of toilet paper, increasing effects       on paper, and be very cheaply applied during paper manufacture, ultrasonics       are another way to        produce useful paper microgeometries, with standing waves powerful enough to       make high egg crate morphology wet paper forms with airfoam whitecaps, the       high egg crate undulations at the paper scrape poo, or dirt off, and the super       airy whitecaps are felt        as extra soft              At paper towels they must have already thought of including .5% 2000 times       puff up with water acrylate powder at the paper towel, turning the paper towel       rapidly to a 1-4 mm thicker making a water nondrippy (?) used paper towel,       hydrophilic gel diapers        are 2¢ each at alibaba and likely contain enough gel powder to make 2 rolls       of paper towels at an added 1¢ per roll but an order of magnitude more water       pickup,               If laser peening strengthens polymers 30-60% then currencies of all nations       can circulate 30-60% longer              If laser peening strengthens paper then paper grocery bags might be makeable       with double digit % less material, also a net mesh could be raised like a       watermark at the bag, or printed on out of a strong biodegradeable material       like polylactic acid        polymer or a vegetable oil derived polymer to strengthen the bag so, at the       same size bag the kraft paper could be 1/3-1/2 thinner, reducing wood pulp       use, making a mesh on the bag could be as simple as printing the biopolymer       reinforcement pattern onto        the bag paper and, optionally ultrasonic or large area simultaneously       holographically welding the printed mesh to the bag, varied patterns of bag       reinforcement are possible from homogenous mesh to a cheaper custom mesh like       denser mesh at base and        corners, the printed on mesh goes onto the bag paper interior so the outside       is aesthetically smooth, similarly a biopolymer custom strenthening mesh on       paperboard like cereal boxes and cookie boxes could allow thinner paper,       saving imaginably half the        paper pulp              Opaque white Polymer containers like yogurt cups, LDPE beverage, milk, and       detergent containers, trays, could all do this thing of having materials       saving reinforcement ribs or mesh at the interior of the container where it is       rarely seen, at products        where the interior mesh can be seen, aesthetically pleasing ribs or meshes can       be made              Landfill beneficial composting bacteria spores could be placed at 1/300th of a       cent amounts as a coating on one of the layers of a juicebox, at $3/gram that       is 100 micrograms of composting bacterial and fungi spores, a bacterium weighs       a picogram, so if        a spore is a tenth that then there are 333k bacteria produced from a juicebox,       one billion colony forming units at $3/gram is at a tenth of a picogram near       1/30 of 1 cent, the environmental benefit is that the landfill composts       faster; juice boxes are 1¢        each at alibaba; some consumers may more highly value products whose       packaging degrades at the landfill              Origami with two magnets              Ambient rf and capacitor combine with dancing flower magnet windings to make a       fluttering toy              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you
