cocoonn.

Brit.

/kəˈkuːn/, U.S.

/kəˈkun/

Forms: Also 1600s–1700s cocon, 1800s coccoon.

Etymology: < French cocon, in 16th cent. coucon, apparently derivative of coque shell (of mollusc, egg, nut, etc.).

a. The envelope or case of silky threads, spun by the larvæ of many insects as a covering to enclose them in the chrysalis state; originally that of the silkworm; extended by Kirby and Spence to the analogous structures formed by any insects, as also to the silken case spun by spiders for the reception of their eggs.

1953 Gloss. Paint Terms (B.S.I.) 9 Although cobwebbing is generally considered a defect in ordinary lacquers, use is made of this property to provide a protective covering for equipment such as aeroplane engines, etc., during storage. A cocoon is formed around the article by the pronounced cobwebbing action of lacquers specially prepared from certain high polymers. A durable, true film-forming lacquer is then sprayed over the cocoon which acts as a support.
