Homemade Silly Putty

My friend found homemade stupid Patty recipe with an old book in the garage. These ingredients look simple (just the same amount of white glue and liquid starch, and a small amount of food color can make it more vivid), but the reality is a little tricky. After several sloppy experiments, I noticed that not all white glue was the same, not all liquid starch was suitable. I found that there was absolutely no reaction with Elmer's concentrated liquid starch called Glue-All multipurpose adhesive (not Elmer's school adhesive) and Sta-Flo (brand I tried first, Niagara). Nonetheless, the bill of materials is relatively simple.

Take the putty from the mixing bowl and place it on a paper towel. I will get a putty for 5-10 minutes

The final product is amazing! Like the Silly Putty purchased by the original store, you can copy newspaper prints and bounce into a ball.

As bounce spat, Silly Putty is known for its rare features: it bounces and bounces, it breaks; it also floats in liquids and can form a puddle in plenty of time. Stupid putty and most other retail putty products have added viscoelastic agents to reduce fluidity and keep the shape of the putty. The abnormal flow characteristics of Silly Putty are due to the components of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) which is a viscoelastic material. Viscoelasticity is a non-Newtonian flow that characterizes materials that act as viscous liquids for a long time but act as elastic solids in a short period of time. Since its apparent viscosity increases directly in proportion to the amount of applied force, Silly Putty can be characterized as inflation fluid.

Other brands sometimes offer similar materials that resemble various colors that are placed in larger size containers, or that have different properties like magnetic or iridescent

In many cases, Silly Putty is difficult to remove from items with texture such as hair and clothing. Alcohol-containing hand sanitizer is often useful. Foil putty dissolves on contact with alcohol, and after the alcohol evaporates, the material does not exhibit its original characteristics. Manufacturer Crayola recommends the use of WD - 40.
