Description
Love the smell of cerium in the morning? Start your day off right! Show your love for cerium oxide and its molecular behavior.
Inspired by Dr. Jane Cook’s Spring 2021 GEEX Talks lecture, cerium oxide is a compound used in the polishing stages of coldworking glass.
“The process of polishing Cerium Oxide, at the atomic level, is just… armageddon for the [glass] atoms. You’re breaking a trillion bonds a second. You’re crunching that glass at a very fine level, at the point where it becomes imperceptible to the eye and to the hand, and it all looks very smooth. But, it is just apocalyptic to the material.”
Microwave and dishwasher safe.
