No more gum stuck to your shoes Business 360

No more gum stuck to your shoes Business 360
The sheer amount of chewing gum that ends up on the sidewalks and pavements is mind-boggling; and let TMs be honest,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], frustrating, when it ends up stuck to the bottom of your shoe.
It also an environmental menace. All of that countless gum you see stuck on the pavement takes weeks, months,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], even years to remove.
The days of spending hours scrubbing off someone else chewed gum could soon be over. A water soluble, non-sticky version has been launched in the United States. A research team at the University of Bristol in England led by Professor Terrence Cosgrove developed the gum.
Q: It was gum on your shoe,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], too, that got you thinking about this?
A: Gum everywhere,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], really. I think everyone had that experience in a cinema or on a train, where your fingers have sort of roved and under the seat, you come across some of this ghastly, sticky mess. You know,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], so I think everyone has their own personal experience,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], whether it hair or stuck to your false teeth.
Q: What prompted you to go the next stage?
A: I always been interested in how polymers, which are one of the materials that make up chewing gum, stick to things. And I just thought of it sort of the other way around, you know,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], could I make something that,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], although it might stick, was easy to remove?
Q: You still have a chewing experience,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], because,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], obviously, there would be no point in having chewing gum that didn chew and taste like it. But what happens when it gets on clothes?
A: It retains a bit more water, which means if a piece of chewing gum is very wet,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which our ones are when they discarded, they really don stick to anything. When they dry out, they do stick. But what you can do is get it wet again or just use the household detergent and it can come off really quite easily.
Q: What sort of interest have you received from the gum industry?
A: The whole of the industry wants to solve the problem of chewing gum pollution. And the goal of a removable gum is something that all major players want.
Q: Right, but quite often,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it a bit like a light bulb that lasts forever. Quite often,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you know, the industry just doesn want that to happen.
A: They want it to happen,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], probably under their own terms,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you know. The problem with chewing gum pollution is it the consumer that causing the problem.
