The cork cambium is a lateral meristem and is responsible for secondary growth that replaces the Epidermis botany epidermis in roots and stems. It is found in woody and many herbaceous dicot s, gymnosperm s and some monocot s, which usually lack secondary growth. Cork cambium is one of the plant s meristems the series of tissues consisting of embryonic incompletely differentiated cells from which the plant grows.

Synonyms for cork cambium are bark cambium , pericambium and phellogen . Phellogen is defined as the meristematic cell layer responsible for the development of the periderm.

The low density of cork means a number of pieces may hang from a hat without significantly increasing the weight. Movement of the head causes the corks to swing, discouraging insects from swarm ing around the wearer s head.

File Kronenkorken 01 KMJ.jpg thumb A crown cork The crown cork also known as a crown cap or just a caps , the first form of bottle cap , was invented by William Painter inventor William Painter in 1891 in Baltimore . The company making it was originally called the Bottle Seal Company, but it changed its name with the almost immediate success of the crown cork to the Crown Cork and Seal Company . It still informally goes by that name, but is officially Crown Holdings . Crown corks are similar to the Pilfer proof caps, as usage of both products is to seal the bottle. The crown cork was the first highly successful disposable product it can be resealed but not easily . This inspired King C. Gillette to invent the disposable razor when he was a salesman for the Crown Cork Company. The company still survives, producing many forms of packaging . ref http www.crowncork.com about about history.php Crown Brand Building Packaging Crown History ref Prior to the invention of the crown cork bottle stopper, soda bottles had ordinary Corkmaterialcork bottle stoppers and often had rounded bottoms so they could not be stored standing upright. The reason for this is corks have a tendency to dry out and shrink, which allows the gas pressure in the bottle to cause the cork to pop. Storing bottles on their side prevents the corks from drying out and popping. After the invention of the crown cork bottle stopper, this problem was eliminated, and soda bottles could be stored standing upright. ref cite journal last1 Nickell first1 Joe year 2011 title Pop Culture Patent Medicine Becomes Soda Drinks journal Skeptical Inquirer volume 35 issue 1 pages 14 17 publisher Committee for Skeptical Inquiry doi url accessdate ref Crown corks are collected by people around the world who admire the variety of designs ... tansan is used.
