PROF BUNSEN (MC) - EXPANDING CUBES
Superabsorbentpolymers absorb large volumes of water when placed in water and are turned into hydro gels. The volume change can be an incredible 250x of the original volume and is fully reversible. The gelled polymer contains up to 95% water so it has the same optical density as water and becomes invisible in water . . . These tiny gel-like cubes will expand dramatically when dropped in water. After A few hours you will have large gel-like cubes that are invisible in water. Or add food colouring to the water to produce coloured cubes. Leave them out on the shelf and they become small cubes. Can be expanded many times into irresistible, slippery giant jelly cubes. Included: 20 g Age: 6+ with adult supervision. Code: PBSM47. Suppliers to schools & laboratories of science equipment & laboratory grade chemicals.

PROF BUNSEN (MC) - EXPANDING SPHERES GIGANTIC
This is truly an amazing absorption demonstration! Grow gigantic water spheres in hours! Pop the 15 mm soft spheres in water and in 48 - 72 hours (2 - 3 days) you will have gigantic water gel spheres up to 80 mm in diameter! And as they contain 98% water, the clear spheres will be invisible in water. Add food colouring to the water (3 drops per 250 ml water) to produce coloured water spheres. Leave them out of the water and they'll shrink back to the original size (due to evaporation), then recycle them by expanding in water again. They make great decorations in flower vases but beware, no one can resist the amazing slippery gel feel! Teaching tips: * Note the inverted image when you hold the expanded sphere up - similar to the image produced in the human eye. Use the sphere as A lens in optical experiments. * Have students determine the increase in mass, diameter and volume [ V = 4 / 3 (pi)r 3 ] Included: 70 grams of 15 mm spheres (~ 25 spheres). Teach: superabsorbentpolymers, gels, optical density, osmosis Safety: Made from non-toxic superabsorbentpolymer, these spheres are NOT classified as TOYS. We recommend adult supervision.
