Abstract: Cellulose cyanoacrylate is employed either to bond two surfaces or to duplicate the shape of a three-dimensional object. The method is carried out by applying a release material to the object to be duplicated, applying a sheet of cellulosic material formed of wood fibers onto the three dimensional object, then saturating the sheet of cellulosic material with a cyanoacrylate glue and permitting the saturated sheet to cure. The resulting product duplicates the shape of the object. Two surfaces may be bonded by placing a sheet of cellulosic material between the two surfaces and applying the cyanoacrylate glue to edges of the sheet until saturated and allowing it to cure. Paper toweling may favorably be employed as the cellulosic material. This material may also be employed in bone or tooth repair. A break or fracture in an article can be repaired by positioning a sheet of cellulosic material over the break, saturating it with cyanoacrylate glue, and holding the saturated sheet in place with a releasable film.
