Fluffy Slime

Thesis statement: Due to the history and past experimentations the experiment of “Fluffy Slime” illustrates the science concept of chemistry. Fluffy slime isn’t the traditional sticky slime. This slime is soft, squishy, and fun to play with, while maintaining a solid form. There’s different ways to play with it, you can stretch it, squeeze it, bend it, and put it back together! Mattel first created slime. It was mostly made of guar gum (polysaccharide) and borax (sodium tetraborate). The non-toxic green slime was made in 1976. Due to the history and past experimentations the experiment of “Fluffy Slime” illustrates the science concept of chemistry. Slime was every child’s favorite toy, but also the enemy of every mother of a clean carpet. During the 1920s, Nobel laureate Hermann Staudinger laid the groundwork for our modern understanding of polymer science. He suggested a new molecular model for polymers; one of long, chain-like molecules and not aggregates or
Now on to the second step, pour your school glue into a separate bowl. Step three; add shaving cream into the same bowl as your glue. Step four; add a cup of foaming hand soap. Adding the foaming hand soap can make the slime fluffier but its okay to forgo this step. Step five; Mix until there are no lumps. The substance should have a thick fluffy texture, similar to a marshmallow cream. Step six; add in slightly more than 1 tablespoon of cornstarch. The cornstarch helps thicken the slime and allows it to retain its shape. The cornstarch isn’t necessary for this recipe but leaving it out will result a thinner slime that won’t hold its shape so much. Step seven; mix thoroughly, but be careful because cornstarch is easy to spill! Step eight; add lotion to your slime. To make your slime stretcher, add two pumps of hand lotion into your slime. But it is okay to skip this step if you don’t want to add it at the moment – it can always be added
