Hi Friends, A humble request to all who use thermocol….. When you use thermocol for your craft, make sure you dispose off thermocol in a safe way. Thermocol releases poisonous gases like all other plastics when burnt. So, do not burn thermocol. I generally dissolve thermocol in petrol and dispose it off. Around 200ml of petrol is sufficient to dissolve a big sheet of thermocol. I still use thermocol because, thermocol is very good for making crafts, and you can carve any shapes as wood does. In this way you can utilise all the waste thermocol that comes to your home in deliveries as packaging materials. Thermocol is made of polystyrene, which is a long chain of carbons that has a phenyl (benzene, C6H5) group coming attached to every other carbon (so on carbon 1,3,5 etc.). It's molecular formula is (C8H8)n, where n is a big number since it's a polymer (many molecules chained together). Petrol (gasoline) is mixture of hydrocarbons with the formula C(n)H(2n+2). Usually the molecules have 8 carbons (or so), so we can just say its formula is C8H18. So when petrol and thermocol mix, no reaction happens. but, the thermocol will dissolve in the petrol. You can try it……. Thanks.
It's the plain thermocol cutter you get in local stationery. I have tried many brands, but all looks to be the same in quality. There are 2 cutter sizes. A big and a small one. I have used both these cutters in the video. White cutter is the big one.
