How to Make Slime ???

                   Slime is fun material that you can make yourself using common household ingredients. See how to make slime at home, and learn about the chemical process that occurs to form it.

You Will Need :

• Non Toxic School Glue
• Borax

Process :

                 Mix 1 teaspoon of borax in 1 cup of water. Stir to dissolve the borax. In a separate container, mix 1/2 cup of glue (1 bottle) in 1/2 cup of water (If you use clear school glue, you will get transparent slime. If you use white glue, you'll get opaque slime). You can add food coloring if you like. When you mix the two solutions together, crosslinks will form between the molecules, forming the gelatinous polymer we call slime.

Storing Slime :

             The slime is non-toxic and can be cleaned from surfaces using soap and water. You can store the slime in a plastic baggie to keep it from drying out.
