Searched that up if that even existed and it led me down a rabbit hole of the early history of plastic, and all the different precursors to it. Not only were people experimenting with blood and sawdust but also with cellulose (parkesine) which became the first type of plastic. I don’t know everything yet tho still reading but it sounds great! Thank u :)
