EpicScience - Making a Polymer with Glue and Borax

When solutions of glue and borax are mixed, a chemical reaction takes place forming long chains of molecules. The term polymer refers to this 3-dimensional network of chains. Instructions for doing this activity at home: Solution 1: 60mL Elmer's Glue + 60mL Water Solution 2: 1 Tbsp Borax + 30mL Water Mix the two solutions and continue mixing until the polymer is completely formed.
