"Thank you for contacting CSIRO.

We do not have the resources to provide answers to information requests. CSIRO scientists are not able to assist with requests for an expert opinion as their main activity and priority is to carry out their research, which means they are off-site or time-restricted by project management requirements.

Once again thank you for connecting with CSIRO. If you have any further enquiries regarding CSIRO and its research capabilities or services, please reply or follow the links below.

Kind regards,
Hui Ping
Information Officer
CSIRO Enquiries ".

But the velcro works . Das ist Deutsche ya.

"The uber-Velcro, dubbed Metaklett, is also chemical-resistant and can withstand temperatures of nearly 1,500 degrees Fahrenheit, according to developers at the Institute of Metal Forming and Casting, Technical University Munich (TUM).
"They are bent in such a way that they deform elastically under light pressure and glide into the holes like the synthetic buckles on backpack straps. Once inserted, they return immediately to their original form and, thanks to their sprung splaying arms, they resist back-pull like an expanding rivet," the literature explains (PDF).
And what of that iconic scratch Velcro makes as it is undone? The sound of Metaklett being unzipped has been described as "metallic, like a glittering chain," TUM's Patrick Regan said. Sounds like an improvement."
