Adhesives from feathers
Adhesives are almost always based on fossil raw materials such as petroleum. Researchers at Fraunhofer have recently developed a process that allows to utilize keratin for this purpose. This highly versatile protein compound can be found, for instance, in chicken feathers. Not only can it be used to manufacture a host of different adhesives for a variety of applications, but the processes and end products are also sustainable and follow the basic principles underlying a bioinspired circular economy. The project, developed together with Henkel AG & Co. KGaA, addresses a billion-dollar market. Adhesives are found nearly everywhere: in sports shoes, smartphones, floor coverings, furniture, textiles or packaging. Even auto windshields are glued into place using adhesives. Experts recognize more than 1,000 different types of adhesives. These can bond almost every imaginable material to another. Adhesives weigh very little and so lend themselves to lightweight design. Surfaces bonded with adhesive do not warp because, unlike with screw fastenings, the load is distributed evenly. Adhesives do not rust, and seal out moisture. Surfaces bonded with adhesive are also less susceptible to vibration. Added to which, adhesives are inexpensive and relatively easy to work with.

The most trafficked mammal on our planet
Pangolins consume up to 20,000 insects a day and are covered in hard scales made of keratin (just like our fingernails), which is unusual for a mammal. Most pangolin species are now being driven towards extinction primarily because of the demand for their scales, even though there is no scientific evidence showing their healing properties or special medicinal function. Pangolins are the most trafficked mammals on our planet; Chinese pangolins (M. pentadactyla) are extremely rare in Hong Kong, which is why this photograph is a precious souvenir of an encounter with such a vulnerable creature.

While the divine fluids hold great power and sway in this world, they are not the only tools available. There are a lot of folk out there who do not have access to an abundant source of these humors, and what little they have is best served for food, warmth and medicine. What good is such powerful magic if your family freezes in the cold night, or your fellow townsfolk grow ill from blight? Wasting this precious fluid on anything else seems foolish, especially when there are easier tools to use in a fight. The world is bountiful in more than just humor, which can be seen in the great mines that burrow deep into buried corpses, or in the billowing strands of a hair-filled field. The millennia of godfalls and countless other carcasses is what made the land we stand upon now, and in their death comes our blessings. Dissectors and harvesters work through the flesh filled earth or reap from the overflowing fields, gathering precious resources for the people to use. These materials build homes, carry bread and cloak bodies, and when things grow dire, they can arm and protect. And as war rages across the land and madness plagues the very world, weapons are seemingly needed now more than ever.  
Bone: The most common material used to craft weapons, bone is enjoyed for its sturdy nature and heft. Bileforgers are able to melt down bone and shape it into whatever form they need, or can reinforce it with stronger ivory chunks. It is a material good for slashing, stabbing and smashing, shaped into a wide variety of weapons. Folks say that bone is your standard fare, good for when any weapon will do. It is important to know what entity these bones came from, as that will determine their strength and durability, and nothing frustrates a bileforger more than getting a satchel full of loose tibia and a "I don't know." 
Chitin: A weapon material praised for its razor edge and lightweight, perfect for those who seek speed in their strikes or don't wish to haul a heavy bone club across the landscape. Chitin is favored for slashing weapons, as little work needs to be done at the forge to get that perfect cutting edge. The material is also enjoyed for its natural color, as most others require paints, dyes or humor infusions to gain a pleasing palette. Chitin is gorgeous from the moment it is harvested, and in the hands of a professional bileforger, they can be turned into deadly works of art. 
Keratin: When warriors and workers need flexibility, then keratin is the material they choose. These harvested hairs are not just physically flexible, but also can be utilized in a variety of ways. Ropes of hair are already common, and any fool can shape a thickened strand into a nasty point. Keratin is great for bows and weapons that need to have some bend and give. They also can be hardened into spears and other piercing weapons, while plated keratin can form hammers, clubs and tough armor. Horns also fall into the realm of keratin, and it doesn't take a crazy imagination to see the potential those have. Keratin can come in a variety of colors, just the same range that can grow from one's scalp. These can be found growing naturally across the landscape, while some farm special strains to get the right consistency and color. It is also an easy material to grow at home, requiring no mining or hunting to obtain, all one needs is a pouch of hair bulbs, nutritious soil and patience.
-------------------------------------------------------------
"FOI Common Weapons"
A shorter entry, but I think a good one for a decent look into this world. A thing to keep in mind is that everything is pretty much organic. Metal is not a material used here (and if one of my drawings looks like it has metal in it...uh, no it isn't...I mean, dragon scales! It's dragon scales or ichored bone! GEYAH!), so everything is forged and carved from things like bone, hair, chitin, scales and hide. Yessiree! This world is certified 100% organic (except for glass, stone and a little oh you get the point).
And if anyone is like "but bone isn't actually good for weapons and such" just remember: this is fantasy bone! Mined straight from the earth by miner bugs carving through the buried corpses of fallen gods. Lets have some fun here!

Learning from pangolins and peacocks: Researchers explore next-gen bio-inspired structural materials
From pangolin scales that can stand up to hard hits to colorful but sturdy peacock feathers, nature can do a lot with a few simple molecules.
In a new review paper, a team of international researchers have laid out how engineers are taking inspiration from the biological world—and designing new kinds of materials that are potentially tougher, more versatile and more sustainable than what humans can make on their own.
"Even today, nature makes things way simpler and way smarter than what we can do synthetically in the lab," said Dhriti Nepal, first author and a research materials engineer at the Air Force Research Laboratory in Ohio.
Nepal along with Vladimir Tsukruk from Georgia Institute of Technology and Hendrik Heinz of the University of Colorado Boulder served as co-corresponding authors for the new analysis. The team published its findings Nov. 28 in the journal Nature Materials.

5 ways to transform your hair
Whether you want to transform your hair with color or cut, it is time to take care of it. Your hair is exposed constantly to the elements, pollution, stress, and styling chemicals and tools. So if you are in the quest for having that lustrous mane, whether in curls, straight, or waves, you need to get your hair transformed from the salon by a professional.
In most cases, we rarely think twice before pampering our face at least once a month in a beauty parlour, so why not indulge your hair a bit too? Let it shine and transform from within.
In this article, we will look into five ways to transform your hair in the salon without getting a cut or color.
1. Use Of Keratin
It's time to stop your fight with frizzy, unruly hair and get it transformed with Keratin treatment. You no longer have to torture your hair with flat irons and harsh chemicals to get straight and manageable hair. Regular Keratin treatment can help you achieve that while nourishing your hair with protein.
2. Scalp Treatment
You love your hair length and style, but you are at your mind's end on how to control the dry, itchy scalp or the oily one. The scalp facial, a growing Japanese trend, helps you to scrub the scalp of any sebum. With a healthy scalp, you can warrant healthy hair that is naturally lustrous.

It also adds volume to flat hair, transforming the mane within half an hour like never before.
4. Moisture Treatment
Suffering from dry hair that also has split ends? The moisture treatment, also known as deep conditioning, adds extra nourishment and moisture to the hair. The unruly tresses are given a deep repairing massage that hydrates the scalp and the hair. In the end, you will have bouncy and healthy hair. This is especially beneficial when you add color to your hair. The colors can make your hair dry, so add the moisture treatment to your coloring service next time.

The treatment while removing the impurities adds nourishment to the hair that gives a natural glow to your hair. We all want the transformation of the hair, i.e., enjoy our natural healthy tresses.
If you are looking for ways to transform your colored hair, then toning treatment is the option. It helps in perfecting the color of the hair.

But try and avoid doing the treatments at home, whether coloring from a box or using Keratin products directly on hair without proper experience. You will be incurring more damage than enviable hair transformation.

Keratin Treatment Aftercare: 5 Essential Rules to Prolong Your Keratin Hair Treatment
Tumblr media
A keratin hair treatment can transform your hair, making it smoother, shinier, and more manageable. To ensure the longevity of these amazing results, it's crucial to follow proper aftercare practices. In this blog, we will discuss five essential rules to help you prolong the benefits of your keratin treatment and keep your hair looking fabulous for an extended period.
1. Avoid Washing Your Hair Immediately: After a keratin treatment, it's important to avoid washing your hair for the recommended period, usually 48 to 72 hours. This allows the keratin to fully penetrate and bond with your hair, ensuring optimal results. Patience is key during this initial phase to maximize the effectiveness of the treatment.
2. Use Sulfate-Free Shampoo and Conditioner: When it's time to wash your hair after the initial waiting period, opt for sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner. Sulfates can strip away the keratin coating on your hair, causing it to fade quickly. Look for products specifically formulated for keratin-treated hair to maintain the treatment's longevity and preserve its benefits.
3. Minimize Heat Styling: Excessive heat styling can compromise the effects of your keratin treatment. Limit the use of flat irons, curling irons, and blow dryers, and when you do use them, set them to lower heat settings. Heat can cause the keratin to break down faster, resulting in diminished smoothness and frizz. Embrace your natural texture or try heatless styling options to reduce heat damage.
4. Protect Your Hair from Chlorine and Saltwater: Chlorine and saltwater can be damaging to keratin-treated hair. Before swimming in a pool or the ocean, apply a leave-in conditioner or hair oil to create a protective barrier. Consider wearing a swim cap to shield your hair from direct contact with water. After swimming, rinse your hair thoroughly and apply a moisturizing treatment to replenish lost moisture.
5. Schedule Regular Keratin Maintenance Treatments: Keratin treatments are not permanent and gradually fade over time due to natural hair growth and exposure to external factors. To maintain the benefits of your keratin treatment, schedule regular maintenance appointments with your stylist. These touch-up treatments will help replenish the keratin levels in your hair, keeping it smooth and manageable for an extended period.
Following proper aftercare practices is essential to maximize the longevity and benefits of your keratin hair treatment. By avoiding immediate washing, using sulfate-free products, minimizing heat styling, protecting your hair from chlorine and saltwater, and scheduling regular maintenance treatments, you can enjoy smooth, frizz-free locks for an extended period. Embrace these five essential rules, and your keratin-treated hair will stay healthy, vibrant, and gorgeous.
