Is a product called "liquid glass" about to revolutionize every aspect of human existence? If the hopes of a German company, which owns the patent to the technology, Nanopool, are realized, a spray-on product will soon be available for a variety of applications. Liquid glass is entirely made of silicon dioxide, the essential ingredient of ordinary glass. Water or alcohol is added, depending on the surface being treated, & a surface is coated with the liquid glass with a thickness of just 100 nanometres (500 times thinner than human hair). Will Liquid Glass Change Everything? Any surface thus treated would be protected against water, dirt, bacteria, heat, acid, & UV radiation. The coating is flexible, breathable, & not visible to the human eye. The liquid glass surface is resistant to bacteria because bacteria landing on it cannot reproduce with ease.
