Is Plastic-fantastic?
This session is suitable for Key Stage Four (_Useful products from organic sources_).
We compare historic materials to those used today discovering about polymers and plastics. Use a simple experiment to look at the properties of plastics, especially those that are found in common use.
We can test physical properties such as strength by using our Tensile Strength machine or chemical properties (patterns of behaviour) such as those encountered in museum conservation.
- We generally offer two sessions a day each with a maximum of 35 students. A session will last from one hour to an hour and half.
- Our sessions are £7 per student under 16 years old, with one adult free per ten students.
