A natural resin. A pale yellow to yellow-green transparent viscous liquid that exudes from the bark of balsam fir (Pinaceae). It has a fragrant scent, and gradually forms a transparent coating in the air. Its refractive index is close to that of glass, so it is used as a cement for lenses in optical instruments. In addition, because of its fragrant scent, it is used as a balm and ointment to treat skin diseases. It is mainly produced in Quebec, Canada. → Balsam → Related article Nicol prism Source : Heibonsha Encyclopedia About MyPedia Information |
