Think elementary school slime project, but on steroids. Their work was detailed in a February 1 study published in the Journal of Molecular Liquids. The prototype material is made of oleic acid (a ...

The whole house was filled with glue and slime materials. It wasn't that difficult to balance when I was in middle school because I had a lot of time when I came home and less homework.

"The fact that the slime transitions from a liquid to a solid in mid-air is extremely unusual," said Professor Matthew Harrington, co-director of the McGill Institute for Advanced Materials. “It ...
