    Hey I'm so glad to see that you took my suggestion to put the "not styrofoam" cup into the Dropzone. I don't know if other's also made the comment but it doesn't matter. Thank you and good luck with your channel!

    an interesting comparison for the 10k subscriber mark would be how both plywood and koosa react to the pressure. koosa is a fibreglass version of plywood.

    This chamber is designed to hold a lot of pressure.. Have you thought about having sodium sealed into a glass vile?
    What would a sodium explosion look like in the abyssal zone?
    Would it even explode at such a high pressure?

    Honestly, I'm surprised that the EPS continued to float at depth. I expected the volume of the compressed air to drop below the displacement of the plastic foam matrix allowing it to sink. I guess I underestimated the amount of air in the sample.
    I'm wondering how aerogel would react. Is the aerogel matrix open cell or closed cell? I suspect open cell, but don't know for sure. Even if open cell, I would suspect the holes to be small enough that surface tension might cause unexpected results.

    Could be interesting to see a joint of meat getting compressed and expanding again, I know pressure cooking really tenderises meat, how does cold pressure and going much higher do though.

      Good idea! CO₂ only needs like 73 atmospheres to compress to a liquid/supercritical fluid, and he puts his chamber up to 430atm in the experiments shown in his videos

    • @TheDropzoneChannel

      It's possible that they crushed an 8oz foam cup which would be smaller. The one in the video is 12oz.

    Called styrofoam by Americans. Us brits.and Aussies have always called it polystyrene.

    • @TheDropzoneChannel

      Thanks for the clarification! I stand corrected.

    • @brianb-p6586
      @brianb-p6586 2 месяца назад

      "Styrofoam" is a trademark (owned by DuPont and it's Dow division) for one specific brand of extruded polystyrene (XPS) foam. Dow is a US company, so it's not surprising that the misuse of this trademark as a generic name is common in North America but not elsewhere... but there are no Styrofoam cups, or any other moulded item made of Styrofoam or other XPS; cups are moulded from beads of expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam.
      Just say "foam cup", or "polystyrene foam cup" if you want to be precise about the material. It is normally called "EPS", but not everyone knows what that acronym means.
      It would make sense to also try simple rectangular blocks of EPS and XPS foam, to compare the materials.
