EFH Series Ferrofluid (60 ml) 2 Oz
This set of science kit includes 2 oz EFH Series Ferrofluid, magnets and some accessories, which was assembled in order to be able to visualize a magnetic field. This set includes 2 ounces of ferrofluid (EFH Series Ferrofluid ) , a petri dish and magnet set. A pair of gloves and a plastic dropper are also included in the set in order to minimize mess and maximize fun! The magnets included in this set are 1-1/2" in diameter and 1/4" in thickness.
What is Ferrofluid? In short, it is a liquid that responds to magnets and magnetic fields. Ferrofluid is an extremely fine powder, coated with a soap-like material called a surfactant, and suspended in a mineral oil liquid base. The resulting magnetic suspension is called a ferrofluid. When no magnetic field is present, ferrofluid behaves and flows like a normal liquid. However, when a magnet or magnetic field is introduced, the ferrofluid is attracted to the field. The ferrofluid aligning itself to the magnetic fields creates fun and interesting shapes and lines, letting you see what a magnetic field looks like.
Please take care when handling ferrofluid. Besides being fun to play with, it also is capable of staining everything it comes into contact with. Please make sure to take care when using it.
Ferrofluid should never be used for applications involving loudspeakers. Ferrofluid can be hazardous or even fatal if swallowed or if it enters airways. Ferrofluid can cause skin irritation or serious eye irritation.
