Abstract
A plastinated plant material and method of preserving natural plant fibres. The plastinated plant material comprises reducing a plant material to a plant sample having a size smaller than the entire plant and plastinating said plant fibers by saturating said plant fibers in acetone to dehydrate said plant fibres, immersing said dehydrated plant fibres in a liquid polymer and subjecting said immersed plant fibres to a vacuum to replace acetone in said plant fibers with said liquid polymer.
