Homemade slime is customarily made of water, PVA-based glue, and borax. 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.
The words “borax” and “glue” have flooded TikTok as a new trend has begun to emerge. The words, once popular in slime making, have taken on a new meaning, and it’s left TikTok users a ...
Flubber (named from the film The Absent-Minded Professor), Glorp, Glurch, or Slime is a rubbery polymer formed by cross-linking of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) with a borate compound. Slime can be made by combining polyvinyl-acetate -based adhesives with borax .
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]
A super sweet mashup has taken TikTok by storm. On July 6, TikToker Emma Grace Burke (@not.eg) posted a video tutorial she made with her grandmother Memama on how to make a drink dubbed “fluffy ...
A rubbery polymer sometimes called Slime, Flubber, 'gluep' or 'glurch' (or erroneously called Silly Putty, which is based on silicone polymers), can be made by cross-linking polyvinyl alcohol with borax. Making flubber from polyvinyl acetate-based glues, such as Elmer's Glue, and borax is a common elementary science demonstration. [38] [39]
The (left) magnetic slime robot inside a model of a stomach, (right) the robot by itself. A magnetic slime robot [1] is a self-healing soft robot made up of polyvinyl alcohol, borax and neodymium magnet particles. It was co-created by professor Li Zhang of Chinese University of Hong Kong. [2]
Borate ions occur, alone or with other anions, in many borate and borosilicate minerals such as borax, boracite, ulexite (boronatrocalcite) and colemanite. Borates also occur in seawater, where they make an important contribution to the absorption of low frequency sound in seawater. [1] Borates also occur in plants, including almost all fruits. [2]
