The Science behind making slime

While slime is a fun activity to do with the kids it is also a science experiment. It is actually ALL science that makes slime actually work when you are making it.

Slime is the end result when there are the correct ratio of polymers to borate ions. To make slime you need both polymers and ions. Most slime recipes are based on a reaction between the polymers in glue and the borate ions in Borax, saline solution or starch. At times there are additional items added to give different textures to the slime, but the basic chemical reaction to get slime is the same.
