DIY Slime



                           DIY Slime!

Introduction

Slime is a moist, soft and slippery substance. Slime can be used for  many purposes like: cleaning the keyboard with sticky slime, absorbing the dirt from the glass surface, and also kids love playing with slime!  For science lovers, I want to tell you all the science that is involved in the process of making slime.
The Borax in the water forms an ion called the borate ion. When the borax solution is added to the glue solution, the borate ions help link the long polymer molecules to each other so they cannot move and flow as easily.


There are so many ways of making slime. In this blog, I will show you, the simplest way of making slime.
