paper is a material that is primarily white and used for writing
I love paper I find it so useful. What is paper made of?
well papyrus is paper-life material produced from the pith of the cyperus papyrus plant which was used in ancient egypt
Interesting! What other uses does paper have?
it all started in the 8th century when chinese papermaking spread to the islamic world, where pulp mills and paper mills were used for money making
Of course money would be one of the first uses. I remember a teacher telling me that money isn't paper. I think he said it was fabric.
Well today almost all paper is manufactured using industrial machinery, while handmade paper survives as a specialized craft and a medium for artistic expression
Wow I didn't even know you could make money by hand! I bet that takes a lot of skill.
yea and they have a process where the use a dilute suspension consisting mostly of separate cellulose fibres in water that is drained through a sieve-like screen.
Anything else interesting about paper I might not know?
