The article will tell you how to make a luminous lizun at home. In order to make the toy original, you can use a variety of additional substances, thanks to which interesting effects will be obtained. As such an element, a fluorescent marker can be used.
Necessary materials
For a lizun who will glow in the dark, you will need:
- Latex gloves.
- The device for mixing.
- The container in which the future slime will be located.
- Fluorescent marker.
- Plain clerical glue.
- Sodium tetraborate. You can take borax or borax.
Working process
- Initially, you need to remove the middle from the luminous marker. To do this, it is necessary to disassemble it, and immerse the luminous element in a prepared container with water and wait for its complete staining.
- Put clerical glue into the resulting solution.
- Then add the above chemicals to the selection and mix everything thoroughly.
- After a short period of time, when the solution thickens, using gloves, take the substance in your hands and mash it. Glowing slime is ready!
Create glow effects
To obtain a luminous effect, you must use a flashlight with ultraviolet light. If you roll the slime into a pancake shape, create dark conditions and turn on the flashlight, you can see how ultraviolet light leaves on the surface of the line. In this way, you can create a variety of luminous drawings and elements.
The imprint on the luminous lizun
Using a printer, we print the image you like on thin paper. We attach the leaf tightly to the rolled pancake made of lizun and illuminate it with bright light. We are waiting for a few seconds. After the sheet is removed, the imprint in the form of the selected pattern will remain on the slime. The event is carried out in complete darkness. The effect does not last long, but it will leave unforgettable sensations and delight from magic in the baby's memory.
All family members can be involved in the game. Glowing do-it-yourself lick will be much cheaper than the store option and leave a sea of impressions for everyone. If there is no time for creation or you cannot find the necessary components at hand, then you can use the store options.
Set "Glowing Slime"
You can buy such a set not only in children's toy stores, but also in various online stores. As a rule, such kits are intended for children over eight years old. In the kit you will find the same substances as described above: sodium tetraborate powder, polyvinyl alcohol, phosphor, glycerin, two plastic cups (measured and colored), measuring spoon, mixing stick and instructions. In addition, you will need to purchase a glass jar with a volume of half a liter.
The child should not be allowed to conduct an experiment without the participation of adults. A slime glowing in the dark will help the young chemist get a lot of impressions from the resulting mass, with which you can spend a lot of fun games.
Most kits include chemical elements in such a volume that is enough for the manufacture of three slimes. By combining them together, you can get a huge luminous ball. Its weight reaches almost half a kilogram.
The finished substance is perfectly detached from everything that gets on, does not leave dirt and takes any form of what it is placed in.
