I Invented Post-It's!

Actually Romy invented post-its, I invented the special glue used on them.

Ordinarily when you make glue, first you need to thermoset your resin and then after it cools you mix in expoxide. Which is just a fancy shmancy name for any simple oxygenated adhesive, right. Then I thought maybe, just maybe you can raise the viscosity by adding a complex glucose derivative during the emulsification process. And it turns out... I was right.
