Stuck ketchup problem solved by MIT engineers - Technology & science - Science - LiveScience - msnbc.com



I was just reading about this new non stick coating developed by engineers at MIT."It's rigid like a solid, but it's lubricated like a liquid."



It will be used inside ketchup bottles so it effortlessly slides out of the bottles. The future of this product seems bright. Just imagine a LiquiGlide type of spray on wax? Maybe there will soon be a new generation of synthetic sealants...
