Science Museum Materials Experiment Kit

Description

This box links to the Materials area of the gallery and contains several activities closely related to the gallery exhibits e.g., Watching Water Freeze, Bubble Pools, Sticky Liquids and Hydrogen Rocket. It also contains other examples of unusual materials used in cutting edge science and technology and in many smart and advanced products. Contents include: smart liquid powder, smart putty, soap solution, plastic tweezers, polarising film, petri dish, bubble wand, glycerine, hydrogel, battery box, memory spring.This box gives you the opportunity to experiment with a number of fascinating materials and exercises including: Water Freezing, See water freezing using a special filter. Smart Liquid, Make a liquid that goes solid when you stir it. Smart Putty, Use sticky putty that bounces like a ball. Hydrogel, Experiment with a powder that �drinks� water. Hydrogen Rocket, Make hydrogen gas using electricity. Making Bubbles, Create long-life bubbles with a special mixture. Memory Metal, Try out a spring that �remembers� when it should open and close.
