Learn about amazing polymers and how they are used throughout our world with this cool polymer educational kit.
A polymer is a large molecule (macromolecule) composed of repeating structural units typically linked by covalent chemical bonds. While polymer in common usage suggests plastics, the term refers to a large class of natural and synthetic materials with a variety of properties.
Polymeric materials have come to play an essential and ubiquitous role in everyday life from plastics and elastomers to natural biopolymers such as DNA and proteins that are essential for life.

With this Polymer Science Kit you can experiment with a multitude of activities.
Make colorful stringy slimy liquid and see serious polymer linking action. Mix up your own batch of gravity-defying goo that self-siphons from one cup to another and flows uphill. Make the "goo" in all kinds of colors and add colored spheres to increase the effect. Grow colorful Garbled Marbles that get caught up in the flow. Grow awesome Clear Spheres from tiny pellets to almost the size of ping pong balls; they seem to disappear when you put them in water.
