Non-Newtonian Fluid Mechanics NON-NEWTONIAN FLUID MECHANICS Well-defined outcome: The student will be able to use measurement, measurement tools, and the scientific process to determine the effect of the percentage of water on the viscosity of a non-Newtonian fluid. Students will represent their findings using the general form of functions (including comparison of linear and quadratic) to describe the effect of % water on viscosity of silly putty and apply the general form of the quadratic parent function to explain non-linear flow of a non-Newtonian fluid (silly putty). Objectives Mathematics (Algebra 1) The student understands that a function represents a dependence of one quantity on another and can be described in a variety of ways. a) The student describes independent and dependent quantities in functional relationships. b) The student gathers and records data, or used data sets, to determine functional (systematic) relationships between quantities. c) The student represents relationships among quantities using concrete models, tables, graphs, diagrams, verbal descriptions, equations, and inequalities. d) The student interprets and makes inferences from functional relationships. 2. The student uses the properties and attributes of functions. a) The student identifies and sketches the general forms of linear (y=x) and quadratic (y=x2) parent functions. b) For a variety of situations, the student identifies the mathematical domains and ranges and determines reasonable domain and range values for given situations. c) In solving problems, the student collects and organizes data, makes and interprets scatterplots, and models, predicts, and makes decisions and critical judgments. Science (Integrated Physics and Chemistry) 1. IPC 7A) investigate and identify properties of fluids including density, viscosity, and buoyancy; 2. IPC 8A) distinguish between physical and chemical changes in matter such as oxidation, digestion, changes in states, and stages in the rock cycle. Materials 4% Borax solution (premixed for students but not for inservice). If students are expected to make the solution provide balances and suitable measures to prepare the quantity of putty expected. Smaller quantities are preferred at the high school level and larger quantities at the elementary and middle levels because the preciseness of the measures is less important with larger quantities. Elmer’s Glue (Not the washable kind, it does not work as well – hmmm?) 2 Quarts of glue (one container) available at a craft store. This is VERY important. If you provide glue bottles students will USE ALL THE GLUE and you will not get multiple attempts. By providing a specific amount of glue students will have to make decisions about partitioning and usage. (100) Plastic/Paper wax coated cups Timers Baggies – 1 per group Meter Sticks or rulers – 1 per group Markers Funnels – 1 per group Stirrers Graph paper/acetates/Overhead marking pens (8) Permanent sharpies (four color) ultra fine point (4) Large water containers with pouring spout (8) Graduated cylinders (8) 200 ml or similar size beakers (not too large) 50 ml will also work (100) Popsicle sticks (2) Food coloring (ALL FOUR COLORS) (8) 1/8 teaspoon measures 139 Background: The task is group based with each group having a different project. Students cannot rely on the results they see from other groups. You will need to have done some preparation with students to understand the context as described on the briefing sheets. The teacher will also have to talk about corporate espionage and the need for students to develop their own recipe and to keep track of those recipes. It also helps if students already know or have been told directly that they should only change one variable at a time in the recipe. They should all know what this means so you might want to be explicit about the borax, water, and glue, each being a variable. Conditionally, how they combine the three components is also a variable. So if they choose to dilute the glue by adding water or to dissolve the borax in water and decanting the solution from the undissolved solute would each be separate conditions so quantities of each of the three variables should be help constant so they can observe the what happens as a result of these choices. If they vary the quantity of one component, they should hold the quantity of the other two variables constant. For example, if they start with 1/8 teaspoon each of borax, glue, and water and they want to alter the water in the next mixture they should keep the borax and glue at 1/8 teaspoon of each and only change the water. Groups should observe the result, write notes about the product and make a decision about what to do next. A common misconception held by students is that they change each variable in turn keeping the previously doubled variable. For example, 1/8 teaspoon of each borax, glue, and water, they double one component leaving the other two constant, note, the results, double the next component adding the previously doubled component and one component constant, note results and then double the last component to the other two doubled components and note the result. The misconception is that they believe 1/4 teaspoon of each ingredient will result in a different product than did the 1/8-teaspoon of each ingredient even though the proportions are exactly the same. All they did was make twice as much but not a different product. Be sure that they have learned about proportions and ratios. School based silly putty is typically created my mixing equal amounts of a 4% Borax solutions and Elmer’s GlueTM, although some web-based resources recommend diluting the glue or altering the 1:1 mixing ratio. Preparation: Decide if you are preparing the Borax solution or expecting students to do it. Preparation of the solution can take a bit of time because you may find you did not make enough. For a class of 25 consider making about 2000ml of solution and giving each group 400ml. Expect spillage and waste so you may want to distribute 200ml and allow one refill or make careful use of the solution a criteria on the grading rubric. IF you are having students create the solution provide only small amounts of the Borax, consider standard supplies of about ¼ teaspoon and you can also prevent waste by including its careful use valued on the rubric. Question: What role do different mixing conditions and proportions of ingredients have on the product each group is charged with making? Explanation: You are going to be put into groups and each group will be an engineering team with a separate project (see Corporate Briefing). Assign each group a different Corporate Briefing. While the tasks may appear different they all require the set of skills. Each project will be related to silly putty. You must keep your task a secret and you will have to prepare a PowerPoint or a video for the purpose of showing how well your product meets the expectations of the firm that hired you. This is a sales pitch. Remember address ALL the requirements in the briefing. (Refer to the Appendix for the storyboarding guide, and rubrics on presentations, and team work or design your own guidelines.) The additional explanation is for the teacher and may or may not be read in part or whole to the class. The glue contains a polymer called polyvinyl acetate resin. We changed the polymers behaviors twice in this activity; once when we added water to the Elmer’s glue and the second time when we added borax. What did the borax actually do? The borax is called a cross-linker. It chemically ‘ties together’ the long strands of the polyvinyl acetate. This tying together changed the viscosity of the glue. It increased the viscosity because the new cross-linked chains interfere with the ability of the solution to flow. As a result the silly putty is ‘stiffer.’ It is not a solid though. How do we know this? If we leave the silly putty alone on a table it will flatten out. It is also not a liquid because we can form it into a shape. So what is it? Many fluids exhibit a non-linear response to stress, and are called non-Newtonian fluids. Such fluids fall halfway between being a solid (where the stress depends on the instantaneous deformation). For such ‘soft 140 .

It stopped people getting an electric shock if they touched the wire. It was very expensive because it was made from beetles that came from Asia. So, a man called Leo Baekeland decided to make a new type of covering. However, instead he discovered how to make the first plastic, called Bakelite. Plastics can be moulded into all kinds of shapes. They are used to make all sorts of things. You can have a go at making a bouncy plastic, called silly putty. You will need: 2 containers (such as plastic cups), a wooden stick (for This 1950s telephone is made from Bakelite stirring), some food colouring, PVA glue, borax solution (about 1 tablespoon of borax to a cup of water) What you do Put about one tablespoon of borax into one cup of water. Stir until it dissolves. Stir in two or three drops of food colouring. Put some PVA glue into the other container – just enough to cover the bottom. Pour some of the borax solution into the PVA glue. Stir the mixture until it makes a soft lump. By now the mixture should be joining together like putty. Take it out of the container and mould it into a ball in your hands. If it is still sticky, wash your hands with water and rinse the ball.

  • THE CHEMISTRY of SILLY PUTTY Silly Putty Is an Odd Substance – It Can Be Slowly Stretched Out, but Snaps If Pulled Apart with Greater Force
    THE CHEMISTRY OF SILLY PUTTY Silly putty is an odd substance – it can be slowly stretched out, but snaps if pulled apart with greater force. It can be molded into shape, but bounces if rolled into a ball. What’s behind these strange properties? Here’s a quick look at the chemical composition and explanation. WHAT IS IT MADE OF? HOW DOES IT WORK? The most important compound in silly putty The presence of PDMS alone, and its is polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). This is the viscoelasticity, doesn’t fully explain how silly simplest member of the polymer family known putty behaves. Another ingredient, boric acid, as the silicones. also makes a telling contribution. PDMS is viscoelastic. This means that it acts The boric acid helps to create ‘crosslinks’ like a viscous liquid and flows over long time between adjacent polymer chains. These help scales. However, over short time scales (for to give silly putty its putty-like nature, and also example, being rolled into a ball and thrown at help explain its strange behaviour. a hard surface), its behaviour is elastic, and it will bounce back. R Si O O Si R – EXAMPLE BORON-MEDIATED CROSSLINK B Si Si Si (R represents the rest of the PDMS polymer chain) O O R Si O O Si R n A POLYDIMETHYLSILOXANE The polydimethylsiloxanes in silly putty end in Si-OH groups. The boric (solid filled atoms represent carbon; smaller outlined atoms represent hydrogen) acid reversibly reacts with these to form short-lived crosslinks between polymer chains. Slow deformation gives these crosslinks time to break and reform, allowing viscous flow, but rapid, forceful deformation does At high molecular weights, the flexible polymer chains become loosely not, so elastic behaviour is instead seen.

  • Fourteen K-12 Outreach Activities for Materials Scientists and Engineers
    FOURTEEN K-12 OUTREACH ACTIVITIES FOR MATERIALS SCIENTISTS AND ENGINEERS Foreward The activities described in this document were performed by volunteers from ASM International chapters as part of our volunteer leader training in 2007. The event took place in an elegant room with carpet, drapes, and wallpaper so heat treating was done in advance. A similar approach could be used to make the “heat treating” activities safe for younger students. Please take the utmost care to consider safety aspects as you plan your outreach event. Safety glasses that fit over corrective lenses are needed for many of these activities, and you may have trouble finding them small enough to fit young students. Many of the activities were gleaned from the ASM Materials Education Foundation’s “Teachers Camp” curriculum and have been proven in classrooms. I’m particularly grateful to Debbie Goodwin (Master Teacher) and Matt Perricone for their contributions to this compilation, and to Dr. Kathy Hayrynen of the Detroit Chapter of ASM International for her ongoing contributions to ASM’s outreach projects at many levels. All of the experimental descriptions in this compilation are either free of copyright protection, or have been used in accordance with the use restrictions of the original source. Original sources for each activity have been noted in the appendices. Commercial sources for some supplies have been mentioned as a convenience, and are not an endorsement of the particular company by ASM International, The ASM Foundation, or me. I hope you’ll have as much fun sharing our profession with students and teachers as I do.

  • Gak and Non-Newtonian Fluid
    1) A polymer consists of long chained molecules that are bound together. 2) Non-Newtonian fluids are those that have viscosities that change with conditions of stress or time. Background Gak – Glue consists of long chained molecules that are very loosely tied together, which explains why it has a higher viscosity than water. When mixed with Borax, the molecules are “tangled” and a chemical reaction takes place. The tangled chains are polymers which is what plastics are and other man made substances such as nylon. http://www.petervaldivia.com/technology/plastics/i mage/polymer.gif&imgrefurl=http://www.peterval divia.com/technology/plastics/index A Non-Newtonian fluid is one that is not characterized by one viscosity. Such fluids have viscosities that change as a function of stress, time or both. A mixture of cornstarch and water flows when little stress is applied, yet acts like a solid when a lot of stress is applied – for example, hitting the surface with your hand or even jumping quickly on it. Uses of such fluids may be in body armor. There are other non-Newtonian fluids that have the opposite reaction to stress. Fluids such as ketchup become less viscous when stress is applied (hence hitting the bottle of ketchup allows the ketchup to flow out).

  • Silly Putty Lab Chemistry
    Name: _____________________________________ Partner____________________________________ Silly Putty Lab Chemistry: Elmer’s Glue is made up of polyvinyl acetate. The borax molecules react with glue molecules (relatively long polymer chains) to form new bonds between one borax and two glue molecules. The linking of two glue molecules via one borax molecule is called polymer cross-linking and it makes a bigger polymer molecule, which is now less liquid-like and more solid. The silly putty is held together by very weak intermolecular bonds that provide flexibility around the bond and rotation about the chain of the cross-linked polymer Directions: 1. Wear goggles. 2. Add one cup of glue and one cup of water to empty, clean plastic milk jug. 3. Mix thoroughly with popsicle stick. 4. Add 2-3 drops of food coloring. 5. Mix thoroughly with popsicle stick. 6.

  • The Cambridge Polymer Group Silly Putty™ “Egg” Silly Putty™ Is a Registered Trademark of Binney and Smith
    CPGAN #026 Characterization of Silly Putty ©Cambridge Polymer Group, Inc. (2014). All rights reserved The Cambridge Polymer Group Silly Putty™ “Egg” Silly Putty™ is a registered trademark of Binney and Smith Introduction Silly Putty™ is a material that vividly demonstrates the richness and complexity of behavior that apparently simple materials can produce. When first handled, the initial impression given by Silly Putty™ is that of a plastic material. It can be easily kneaded, much like dough, into any shape desired. On short time scales these complex shapes appear to be permanent distortions of the material. However, upon longer inspection the material is seen to sag under its own weight although the putty does not flow indefinitely on a flat surface. If rolled into a ball and dropped, the material bounces like an elastic material. In addition, if a shock or impulsive load is applied to the putty, it will shatter. The behavior of this fascinating material gives insight into the rheological behavior of many materials. In rheological terms the experimenter is distorting the Silly Putty™ over a range of Deborah numbers. This non-dimensional parameter describes the ratio of the fluid relaxation time scale to that of the experimental time scale. A high Deborah number therefore corresponds to a fast experiment in which the load or impulse is applied over a very short time scale. Composition Silly Putty™ is a silicone material produced by Dow Corning® Corporation (under the name of Dow Corning® 3179 Dilatant Compound). According to Dow Corning the composition (by weight percentage) is as outlined in the table below.
