In the image on the right the putty has been heated with A hair blower and the face drawn with A piece of ice. Included: 50 grams (pocket pack) Teach: Thermo-chromic pigments, Non-Newtonian substances, Fun! More information: This putty is A Non-Newtonian substance, which means that it doesn't follow the theory of viscosity that Newton observed. Viscosity is the "thickness" of A liquid, or its resistance to flow. (Honey, for example, has A much higher viscosity than water.) Unlike most liquids, however, this putty changes its behaviour based on the amount of force applied. If you pull it gently, it will stretch; if you pull it forcefully, it will tear. When you cool it down and apply the ultimate force with A hammer, it acts exactly like A solid and shatters as though it were ceramic. Age: 5+ Code: PBSM20.
