…has a surprising use! – Physicists have discovered an unbelievably large source of x-rays in common household sticky tape. Unrolling tape in a vacuum has been found to produce x-rays so intense that in the future, tape may replace x-ray machines.

It seems that there are now a million-and-ONE uses for duct tape!
