The word "Sellotape" is a brand name for "cellophane adhesive tape", known in the US as the brand name "Scotch tape" (trademark of the 3M Corporation).

The brand name in the UK is spelled Sellotape because when it was first manufactured in 1937, "Cellotape" was still a trademarked name. (Sellotape trademark of Scapa Group PLC)

Cellophane is a transparent form of cellulose (wood or plant fibers), which is itself a polymer of the molecule glucose (sugar).
