St.Mary's College assistant professor Troy Townsend says less efficient but much cheaper inorganic materials could be used to create paintable solar cells.

圣玛丽大学的助理教授特里·特温斯德表示低效但价格却非常低廉的无机材料可以用来制造可上漆的太阳能电池。

An LED is a type of diode or semiconductor device that emits light when electrons flow through layers of crystalline inorganic material.

LED 是一种二极管或半导体器件，当电子流过结晶无机材料层时会发光。

All of this from body parts that are about 70% mineral, made of an inorganic material called hydroxyapatite that is stiff when compressed, combined with flexible protein called collagen to keep you from shattering.

所有这些身体部位大约 70% 是矿物质，由一种叫做羟基磷灰石的无机材料制成，这种材料在压缩时是坚硬的，与一种叫做胶原蛋白的柔性蛋白质结合在一起，可以防止你粉碎。

Now most of these farms are hydroponic or aeroponic systems, which means that instead of using soil, they use a substitute material like polyurethane sponges, biodegradable peat moss and even use inorganic materials like perlite and clay pellets.

现在这些农场大多是水培或气培系统，这意味着他们不使用土壤，而是使用聚氨酯海绵、可生物降解的泥炭藓等替代材料，甚至使用珍珠岩和粘土颗粒等无机材料。

" We'll see companies demonstrating how inorganic materials like nylon, plastic and metal can be reused – for example, carpet tiles that can be dismantled at the end of their life and used as a raw material for new tiles, " he said.

“我们将会看到企业展示尼龙、塑料和金属等无机材料是如何被再利用的——例如，小方地毯可以在使用寿命结束时拆卸，然后用作新地毯的原材料”。
