It looks like mozzarella and that's terrifying

[mariahacker]

Forbidden milk makes forbidden mozzarella

[arthurdavis]

a subliminal reminder of The Mould Effect

[napalmholocaust]

That isn't just latex, it already has potassium hydroxide in the solution to keep the chains apart. Or else the whole bottle would set like the big cakes/sheets do, it being untreated latex before it leaves the rubber farms.
I use it for molds, the ammonia free/ hydroxide kind.

Mould Effect: the rising of a chain above the lip of a container as it is pulled over the edge.
Mould Curve: an infinitely expanded Celtic Maze.
Mould Space: the theoretical space filled by the Mould curve.

Cool! How about a video on short-chain polymers vs. long-chain polymers? I’m thinking specifically of plastic “wrap” that stays in a ball when you wad it up vs. plastic wrap that absolutely refuses and springs apart.

[HugoStuff]

I don’t like the thought of one massive molecule that size

[ScenicFlyer]

This guy is going over topics at the same time my college class goes over it. How

[MrSandman]

My corneas were crosslinked as a treatment for keratoconus. Really cool process!

[numinous]

Is latex and vinegar cheaper than mozzarella? Asking for a chinese government official.

[BiggMo]

Looks like a way to solidify old paint for disposal

[ThrashmIO]

A molecular scaled version of storing loose wires in the same container.

[monkeybarmonkeyman]

Would be interesting if you were to address what makes a material transparent.

[quartz]

Keep that away from me.

I WILL eat the forbidden mozzarella.

[willcaro]

Cool to see someone playing with one of the only things I'm allegeric to.

[christmassnow]

Since it polymerizes very quickly, how can you make the mix uniform enough to make the properties consistent all over the ball?

[sebnjsn]

Wow that’s so cool. Thanks!

The more you knooooww

[Jae-fkvn]

Oh no! It's the Forbidden cheese.

[ferrarimp]

What happens when you go the other way with the pH on the ball? Would you get back to a liquid, or would the effects of entropy not allow it?

[Badgerheist]

Much to the chagrin of mariners who have purchased diesel of dubious quality, experiencing polymerization of their fuel in the purifying units and subsequently losing their propulsion plant.
