Polyethylene oxide in a non-toxic, long-chain polymer with a high molar mass. Because of extensive hydrogen bonding, it is soluble in water. A solution of Polyox (approximately 1% w/v) behaves as an 'elastic liquid' i.e. it 'self-siphons'.

If you quickly drag some of the solution from a beaker with a spatula or spoon, it will continue to move out of the beaker. You can even draw it up into a syringe even though the tip of the syringe is above the liquid level.

(5g is sufficient to make about 500 cubic cm of the fluid).

  • Supplied in 50g pack.
  • Bulk orders will be supplied in a single bag.

Please note: Propan-2-ol (B8F78836) is required for use with this item.
