Meaning of "laminiferous" in English

The term "laminiferous" is a scientific and technical adjective that describes a material containing or producing layers, sheets, or a laminate structure. It is commonly used in geological and material science contexts to refer to substances that are stratified or have the property of forming into thin plates or layers. The root "lamini-" is derived from the Latin word "lamina," meaning "plate" or "layer," and "-ferous" indicates bearing or containing. Laminiferous materials are often significant in fields like geology, botany, and engineering due to their layered nature.
