It's probably the same process as this video on making bulletproof wood: https://youtu.be/CglNRNrMFGM?si=hfDKE33s7YlB1e9L https://youtu.be/CglNRNrMFGM?si=hfDKE3

Compress the wood and then inject it with resin to stabilize it. Effectively it's only very partially wood and more resin at the end.
After double checking, the video references the science paper from the article, so yes, it's 100% the same process.
- gnfargbl 1y agoWhere in that video do you see the injection of resin mentioned? I didn't immediately see that step from skipping through, and it's not mentioned in the abstract of the paper.
- bigtones 1y agoYeah, just watched that very entertaining video and there is no resin in that bulletproof wood - it's just had all the lignin squeezed out and cooked under pressure.
- iLoveOncall 1y agoYeah my bad I confused it with another one of his videos.
- kragen 1y agoNo, this process doesn't involve adding any resin or other binders. The result is still entirely wood.
