Cellophane is a plastic made from paper. The same wood cellulose found in paper is the basis for cellophane. The thin film is "regenerated" from cellulose that has been dissolved in caustic soda, then treated with sulfuric acid. The same material (called viscose) that forms cellophane is the base for the "semi-synthetic" polyester fiber known as rayon.
Yes, once it has been coated with nitrocellulose or wax which is what they use in commercial cellophane. The cellophane in cellophane tape is waterproof, but the glue used on it is not (it is soluble in water).
Evaporation is the most common way but you can also use a fine filter as in a reverse osmosis system. These system use very high pressure and long stacks of semi permeable membrane, like cellophane.

a semi-permeable membrane
depend upon your choice , hydrogen permeable but water not
paper
i guess according to me cellophane is animpermeable membrne which infact means water cannot pass through it from a higher cocentration to a lower one do consultlower secondary science book 2 hi to every one from fatima.... :)

It is semi permeable [ the cell membrane]
Permeable mean that it is full time. Semi-permeable is when it is only part of the time.
The type of tubing that is semi-permeable is that tubing used for dialysis. It needs to be semi-permeable to switch or remove molecules for different types of diffusion.

Transparent, or see-through paper, is called cellophane.
The cell membrane is semi-permeable.
Animal cell membranes are a semi-permeable membrane.
No, they are fully permeable, i.e. liquids and other things can pass through them fully. The cell membrane is what's semi permeable.
