Slime

Slime is a flexible, stretchable substance made from a combination of chemicals, typically including glue and a reactive agent like borax or contact lens solution. When these ingredients mix, they create a non-Newtonian fluid that acts like a solid when struck quickly but flows like a liquid when moved slowly. Slime’s unique texture makes it popular for sensory play and stress relief. Its consistency can be customized by adding ingredients such as glitter, colorants, or foam beads. Although often associated with children’s entertainment, slime’s physical properties also make it useful in scientific demonstrations and educational activities.
