Examples include Silly Putty and electroactive slime. The specifics of how a type of slime works depends on its chemical composition, but the basic explanation is that chemicals are mixed to form polymers. The polymers act as a net, with molecules sliding against each other. For a specific example, consider the chemical reactions that produce classic glue-and-borax slime:. The cross-linked polyvinyl alcohol traps a lot of water, so slime is wet. You can adjust the consistency of slime by controlling the ratio of glue to borax.
If you have an excess of diluted glue compared with a borax solution, you'll limit the number of cross-links that can form and get a more fluid slime. You can also adjust the recipe by limiting the amount of water that you use. For example, you could mix the borax solution directly with glue, producing a very stiff slime.

Measure content performance. This means that it is not considered a solid or a liquid. Issac Newton, a well-known scientist, revealed how liquids are affected by water and temperature. However, slime goes against this statement and, thus, is a Non-Newtonian fluid. Other toys such as Play-Doh or Silly Putty fall into this category as well. When you combine borax and glue to make your slime, it creates a fiber-like consistency.
These two ingredients bond the fun substance together. Not only does it create the bond, but forms what is known as a polymer. A polymer is defined as several smaller molecules formed into one larger molecule. We hope you enjoyed these neat facts and history of slime!

The Brain Matter ghost looks like a blue version of the head of the mutant from the classic sci-fi film, This Island Earth with tiny tentacles at the bottom. The Stomach Stuff ghost looks like a yellow open egg sack of the Xenomorphs from the Alien franchise with large yellow feet.
The last of the Gooper Ghosts is perhaps the most famous. Billed as the Green Ghost, this ghost is actually Slimer, the famous grub goobling ghost from the films and a member of the cartoon team. This is not the first Slimer toy but it is the first to use the included Ecto-Plazm.
Slimer has his mouth open wide and his arms outstretched ready to grab a snack or a bad ghost. What makes him part of the Gooper series is his detachable backpack. Once you fill the backpack and press the attached pump, goop will ooze out of his mouth to give his friends a nice, sloppy kiss.
Last but not forgotten, there is one action figure set we should mention which uses Ecto-Plazm. It is the famous firehouse which the Ghostbusters used as their headquarters.
A prize possession in any slime collection! Slime in this franchise is called Retromutagen Ooze or simply Ooze. Like its counterparts, the Retromutagen Ooze was originally available only as a closed bucket. However, there were a few toys that directly used the Ooze as part of its working design.
The Retrocatapult is such a toy. As the name implies, it is a one person catapult that slings the Ooze as a true catapult would sling a rock. The Retrocatapult has a chair for one Turtle, a turtle shell shield and stabilizer legs. It is an actual toy toilet on top of an arch way with a reservoir underneath. The figure can be strapped into the reservoir and Ooze can be poured in the toilet to eventually fall on the figure below.
