The Chemistry of Toothpaste Toothpaste is not a new thing. It has been traced back to Ancient Egypt. They used a powdered rock and vinegar‚ which created a chemical reaction that dissolves the plaque on teeth. In 1900’s people used hydrogen peroxide and baking soda or chalk‚ pulverised brisk and salt as a toothpaste. Toothpastes today‚ are mostly made up of abrasives‚ surfactants‚ a detergent‚ a thickener‚ a moisturizer‚ water‚ flavouring agents‚ coloring‚ sweeteners‚ fluoride and desensitizers

[Life in Situé] On the 25 July I visited the National Portrait Gallery. I visited two separate exhibitions within the National Portrait gallery‚ The Laura Knight Exhibition and the BP Portrait Award 2013. What I learned from the visit was not only the many different styles that came from the 1800’s to the most recent entries is that in my project I can take many different routes down the development of this project. This will help me to not only create a diversely styled piece but also help refine
