Start by collecting materials needed: Materials:2 mixing bowlsmeasuring cupElmer’s white school gluetap waterfood coloringstirring spoon What to Do 1. Make a Glue Solution:In one of the mixing bowls add 1/2 cup (4-oz bottle of Elmer’s White School Glue) with 1/2 cup of tap water. Add 5 drops of food coloring. Stir Well. FYI: If you […]
Project: Slime/Variable
Variables in A Slime Experiment Variable is the name given for any part of an experiment that changes. For example, the following question identifies what is happening as well several variables which are identified. Question: If a glue solution and a borax solution are mixed, what effect would the ratio of the solutions have on […]
Slime Creatures Produced by Sonic Waves
Sonic is a term that refers to sound that: has a frequency within the audible range of the human ear refers to waves and vibrations The slime in the video is a polymer made with borax and glue. For information about slime as well as how to make it, see SLIME INDEX.
Science Project: Slime/Data
Step 8: Data For this Slime experiment, you will be recording the distance that each test sample of slime flows in a specific amount of time. You should test four or more slime samples from each Glue Viscosity. Determine the best way for your to record your data. For example, a sample data chart is […]
Science Project:Slime
How to Develop a Borax Slime Science Project Step 1. Topic You have your topic, which is: Making Slime Step 2. Research Research is learning about your topic. A good way to learn about slime is do an exploratory investigation about making slime. Exploratory Investigations: These are generally simple experiments performed for the specific purpose […]
Polymer: Slime Facts
Elmers glue and other comparable school glues are polyvinyl adhesive (PVA). Slime is made by mixing PVA glue with a solution of borax. Slime is a polymer, which is a chemical consisting of large molecules made of a linked series of repeating units called monomers. The polymer slime produced is not as runny as the PVA glue […]
Slime Glossary
The terms on this page relate to the physical and chemical characteristics of SLIME as well as other fluids with comparable characteristics. Dilatant fluid is rheopectic, which means sudden forces causes an increase in viscosity. Fluid is a term used for anything that can flow; gases, liquids, and non-Newtonian fluids. Newtonian fluid is a fluid […]
Starch Slime
Slime:Cornstarch and Water. MESSY?? You bet. FUN?? Absolutely 1. Pour 2 cups of corn starch into a large bowl. Tip: It is difficult to give an exact recipe for making cornstarch slime because humidity can be a factor. So, I have suggested that you start with a 2:1 ratio of corn starch to water. 2. […]
