Materials

Temperature-Sensitive Flexible Sheets

These sheets are a thermochromic, ready to use, flexible vinyl material that is coated with liquid crystal and then covered with a clear polyester over laminate.

Transparent LED Film

This film is a clear sheet with a transparent but electrically-conductive coating acting as invisible wiring. It is designed to be laminated between two sheets of glass.

Hand Moldable Plastic

This hand moldable plastic has a melting temperature of about 136-140°F. It's great for making one-off prototypes, impressions to use as a temporary mold, and more.

Heat-Shielding Gel

This heat-shielding product (spray-on gel or paste) can temporarily shield virtually any solid material from temperatures up to an incredible 7500 °F (4100 °C).

Levitating Pyrolytic Graphite

It's difficult to tell in the picture, but the small square of graphite is levitating a few millimeters above the magnets. Does not require any power source; it will continue indefinitely.

Translucent Concrete

This concrete tile allows light to pass through. Contains optical fibers that make up about 5% of its surface area. Allows an outline to be clearly visible on the other side.

Flat Wires

Paper-thin wires used to transmit electrical power, speaker signals, TV signals, and computer data. They're a drop-in replacement for traditional round wiring.

Highly Reflective Transparent Glass

This version of the Transparent Mirror Glass is made using a optical interference coated, low iron glass to achieve higher clarity and slightly higher reflectance.

Super absorbent polymer spheres

When placed in warm water for 2 hours, they swell up to several times their size and turn into clear little spheres. They even bounce when you throw them on the floor.

Magnetic + Translucent Metal Foil

This is steel foil that has been made translucent. It feels heavier than the aluminum foil and when you catch the light the right way you can see through it.

Aluminum Foam

This stabilized foamed aluminum is used to create strong yet lightweight panels. Similar in appearance to a hard, metallic sponge, it is visually striking.

Soft Gel Magnets

This unique magnet is soft and squeezable to the touch. In every other way it's like a normal magnet. Created by mixing ferrite particles with a polyethylene gel.

Glow-in-the-Dark Glass

This glass absorbs sunlight like a sponge. In the dark, it radiates a blue/green light for more than an hour after being exposed to light for only 20 minutes.

Temperature-Sensitive Glass

Color-changing dyes and additives have been offered in paper, plastic, and textiles for some time, but this product takes the idea into a new area: glass tiles.

Rubber Glass

What if you could smash your hand through glass without sustaining any injuries? With Rubber Glass, you can create special effects that simulate glass without the danger.

BarePaint - Conductive Paint

An electrically conductive water-based paint that can be used to paint wires onto things like models, clothes, furniture, walls, almost anything you can think of.

Magnetic Fluid

Magnetic fluid, or ferrofluid, is normally a thick, black-brown liquid, but in the presence of a magnetic field it instantly responds.

Uranium Ore Radiation Range 'F'

Uranium Ore samples in the 12,000 to 15,000 CPM radiation range samples are excellent general purpose radiation sources for a variety of experiments.

Temperature Sensitive Fabric

This material is a temperature sensitive additive applied to a 2oz brushed polyester film. The film is waterproof, temperature sensitive, and color changing.

Disappearing Wax

This is a wax that turns directly from a solid to a gas without ever softening. If you leave a blob of this wax on your desk it will fully disappear in a few weeks.

Copper Foil Tape

A 1 oz. rolled copper foil which provides excellent solderability and conformity. Used for RFI/EMI shielding applications in the electrical/electronics industry.

Temperature Regulating Material

Absorbs heat when the temperature rises; releases heat when it falls. Phase Change Materials are used to regulate temperature around a specific transition temperature.

Conductive Hook and Loop

A type of Velcro that conducts electricity. You can see in the picture, the electricity is running through the two pieces stuck together and lighting the bulb.

UV Tinted Transparent Coating

Reveals itself only under UV light. With a UV light (black light), this coating will glow and you can tell if you missed a spot.

Magnetic Black Glass Dry-Erase Board

Beautiful magnetic glass surface is perfect for neon dry-erase markers.

ThermochromaticThinking Putty

Hypercolor Thinking Putty is thermochromic -- just a touch from your hands or a warm coffee mug will reveal a new, "hot" color.

Electroluminescent (EL) Panel - 10cm x 10cm Blue

This is a big sheet of flexible plastic coated with EL material so its like one big glowing square. Add a small inverter and you can add a cool glowing square to anything, clothes, shoes, anything.

NeverWet Liquid Repellant

Guards virtually any surface against corrosion and wear caused by exposure to moisture Low odor, 2-step process, easy application and usage

Amco Rub Away Bar - Removes Odors

Rubbing the bar removes any odor from your hands Great for use after working with onions, fish, or garlic 4-Inch Length by 2-1/4-inch Width by 1-1/2-inch Height Great stocking stuffer for avid cooks
