    That’s interesting Tubs! Materials bonding cork particles together, resins, etc. I always thought a cork was a cork! I can see where some of these are "closed cell" corks due to the bonding agent, and some may be open-cell, or maybe gas breaks down some of the man made materials in the mix. I’m bettin’ ethanol alone won’t break these down, because that’s in wine! I wonder if all these concoctions withstand Dope or Super Glue?
