The slime is created as a result of the borax linking the polymers in the glue together to create larger polymers. [1] Its recipe can vary based on the desired color, consistency, or scent of the slime; additions can include dyes or sequins. [2] [3] [4] Other recipes for slime include shampoo, soap, corn starch, body lotion, and shaving cream. [5]
Slime flows under low stresses but breaks under higher stresses. Flubber, also commonly known as slime, is a non-Newtonian fluid, easily made from polyvinyl alcohol–based glues (such as white "school" glue) and borax. It flows under low stresses but breaks under higher stresses and pressures.
A Feb. 17 video posted by @Madisdawgs, taking part in the trend, reads “how to not care no borax no glue.” It has garnered over 3.8 million views as of Feb. 20.
if you mix glue with borax then you can make silly putty. Look online for the procudure and ratios Glue (PVA - white glue) and Borax is analogous to "Flubber." Guar gum and borax are like Mattel's old "slime" - neither is Silly Putty, which is silicone based, not water based. --96.51.103.46 00:01, 18 December 2015 (UTC)
Slime is a toy product manufactured by Mattel, sold in a plastic trash can and introduced in February 1976. [2] It consists of a non-toxic viscous, squishy and oozy green or other color material made primarily from guar gum. [3]
PVAc dispersions such as Elmer's Glue-All contain polyvinyl alcohol as a protective colloid. In alkaline conditions, boron compounds such as boric acid or borax cause the polyvinyl alcohol to cross-link, forming tackifying precipitates or toys, such as Slime and Flubber. A number of microorganisms can degrade polyvinyl acetate.
The two decided to market the bouncing putty by selling it in a clear case. Although it sold well, Fallgatter did not pursue it further. However, Hodgson saw its potential. [1] [5] Already US$12,000 in debt, Hodgson borrowed $147 to buy a batch of the putty to pack 1 oz (28 g) portions into plastic eggs for $1, calling it Silly Putty.
Polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH, PVA, or PVAl) is a water-soluble synthetic polymer.It has the idealized formula [CH 2 CH(OH)] n.It is used in papermaking, textile warp sizing, as a thickener and emulsion stabilizer in polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) adhesive formulations, in a variety of coatings, and 3D printing.
