Word: Shellac
Source: Media & Culture by Richard Campbell
"In the 1940s, because shellac was needed for World War II munitions production, the record industry turned to a polyvinyl plastic record."
Definition: 1. lac that has been purified and formed into thin sheets, used for making varnish.
My sentence: To this day, I still see shellac covered wooden tables being used in our college classrooms.
