Inventions made by chance
Now we are surrounded by the usual for us, things that make our life easier, but these things we have long been accustomed to ignore. But they appeared thanks to the discoveries of scientists and businessmen, aristocrats and common people. In general, we will not get involved in philosophizing, let's learn how were those or other things familiar to us from childhood. Well, habitual or in the process of growing.
It is understood that the review will not review all the thousands of things that were invented by accident. We just mention the most typical cases.
Ice cream on a stick
It is about popsicles, or a frozen juice on a stick, which is known and loved by millions of people. But the author of this simple product opened the way to the creation of such an ice cream when he was 11 years (it all happened in 1905). He poured the powder of the "Jupiter" or "invite" the water and forget all this drink. A cup with all this guy left on the street in the cold season. And yes, in the water, he also left a stick for stirring. After all this is frozen, the resulting product is the boy liked.
He showed it to all your friends and forget about all this. He remembered his "invention" it is only after 18 years. So there was ice cream «Epsicles». Well, other manufacturers did not sleep, and released their version of the ice cream. The result we see today - thousands of species of fruit ice cream, juice on a stick and all other.
Super glue
This substance imperceptibly into our lives, and now a glue helps to restore absolutely broken things. Few people know that the cyanoacrylate, so called super glue in a scientific way, was invented during the Second World War, when needed for the clear plastic sight.
For sights, he did not come, but it turned out that the glue can glue all instantly. For example, he glued the wound, and the Americans used it in Vietnam. After that he started to use in everyday life, which we have done so far.
X-rays
It's quite an old discovery which was made in 1895, physicist Roentgen (Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen). He accidentally noticed that the radiation CRT passes through quite solid objects (or the part of the body), leaving a shadow. And the denser the object, the stronger the shadows.
After just a few months there was a picture of his wife hands of a scientist who is very famous. In general, if not for the observation of X-rays, we could not find out what happened there with a joint - or just bruised, or broken, or something else. Good invention, very necessary.
Cellophane
More than the usual matter in life like as not. It all began in 1908 when one of the industrial chemists, trying to create a reliable water-proof cloth, created a substance that has been called cellophane. For the purpose it is to serve the scientist could not, it was too hard, but as the package is excellent. However, the scientist took about 10 years to create a machine that could, in a non-stop producing cellophane.
Vulcanized rubber
Another substance, without which our life is unthinkable, and even more so, the automotive industry. And opening accidentally - a young scientist decided to test what would happen if the rubber is mixed with chalk, lime or nitric acid. Well, nothing happened. But after the rubber mixed with sulfur, and even accidentally dropped on a hot surface - scientist was flexible rubber, which is now producing all - from balls to tires.
