  • What happens when you mix the fluid in a glow stick with bleach? What happens when you place that glow fluid in a microwave? In today's video we're answering these questions and more! We’re again cracking open some glow sticks to see what makes them work and then doing some fun and unexpected things with them! So if you’re wondering about glow stick hacks, how to explode a glowstick, what's in a glow stick, and what cool science experiments you can do with glow sticks...TKOR has you covered!
    This glow stick project is also great for those wanting to know how glow sticks work, glow sticks in water, glow stick tricks, how to make glow sticks, glow stick microwave hacks, exploding glow sticks, will glow sticks explode, microwaving glow sticks, and more...watch the video to find out!
    So if you’re looking to try something new or for an activity such as: cool science experiments, fun weekend project, magic glow hacks, or a creative glow in the dark experience, watch the video to learn more.

    1. Make a bar of soap where one side has dye mixed in and another has activator.
    2. Lather soap
    3. Relish in glowing soaplather

  • @Cradle2dagrav
    @Cradle2dagrav 6 лет назад +104

    This may sound crazy but what if u rigged up a vaporizer/humidifier somehow to get the full effect and use the glow fluid so it would produce glow in the dark clouds. Of course i know its not meant for inhalation but a controlled scenario could be created safely. I know you can do it so lets see it.

    • @michelledubois4237
      @michelledubois4237 6 лет назад +7

      To bounce off of your idea, what about using glow stick fluid in a fog machine and turning it on? Or if that is too dangerous due to inhaling the vapor, what about just adding tonic water instead of regular water and turning on a black light?
      Also, what does glow stick fluid do if added to tonic water? With carbonation or without? Id love to know!

    • @AfatterMan2
      @AfatterMan2 6 лет назад +2

      I'm not a chemist, but I'm quite sure their needs to be a collected amount of the liquid for the reaction to take place..
      If you make it into a cloud there may not be enough of the liquid collected together in the air for the reaction to take place

      @sableghost 4 года назад +1

      @@RejectedInch I wouldn't put glow stick fluid on my tongue either but he did it in the last video. I wouldn't put it in the microwave as well (look for youtube video of the kid who did that and had it blow up on him).

    • @sandrawong6787
      @sandrawong6787 4 года назад

      I don't really thing the humidifier will turn it into fog because it works best with fluids the density of water but maybe if you increase the frequency of the vibration, it just might be possible.

    Paintballs with two compartments. One for dye and one for activator. Burst and mix on impact. Glowing battlemarks.

  • @tr_slimey6811

    Cool idea: freeze one part of the glow stick fluid and microwave the other. Pour the hot liquid onto the glow stick ice.

  • @ghuegel
    @ghuegel 6 лет назад +23

    Try sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). It's a surfactant used in soaps. I'm assuming that it's the surfactant that makes dish soap work, and SDS could give a purer, stronger effect.

    • @MrNuttinMuch
      @MrNuttinMuch 6 лет назад +2

      Dave Power #6 I thought it was because of the bubbles in soap.. I thought maybe it would trap the light and cause it to illuminate brighter

    • @tr_slimey6811
      @tr_slimey6811 6 лет назад

      SeLf_MaDe don't think that would work. Those bubbles in the vacuum didn't glow. I think there's not enough of the fluid in them for them to visibly glow.

    • @BanyanTurk
      @BanyanTurk 6 лет назад

      Well technically if you get the bubbles thicc enough they can glow. sadly its near impossible to do so unless you use a different gas with a lower PSI. :)

    • @tr_slimey6811
      @tr_slimey6811 6 лет назад

      Will Turk hmm. Perhaps put a bubble in a vacuum chamber? 🤔

    What will happen if you mix glow sticks with liquid nitrogen. Will it keep that same glow?

    • @tr_slimey6811
      @tr_slimey6811 6 лет назад +7

      Nicke Probably not as the reaction can't take place in frozen fluid. However, it will most likely glow again when melted. That would sure look interesting 🤔😁

    • @michaellow4697
      @michaellow4697 6 лет назад +3

      Simple, it slows down and stops when frozen. Is this really that exciting to you?

    • @bendumesny5756
      @bendumesny5756 6 лет назад +1

      it just stops the reaction

    • @DarkNeutrino_R
      @DarkNeutrino_R 6 лет назад +1

      NO. The closer things get to absolute zero (They cant reach it but they can get very close to it) The less molecules in it move and so the less light is produced.

    • @bendumesny5756
      @bendumesny5756 6 лет назад

      so it slows down the reaction is what your saying

    1- How about Vinegar VS Baking Sode in glow stick. Maybe the Ph has an effect on the glow intensity
    2- Try to make frozen cubes of the activating liquid and pour the colored one on it
    3- Figure out who activate who. Maybe we can find out a new activator and do a DIY one

    You should try mixing the various chemicals with each part of the glow stick separately to see if they trigger a reaction individually. Also, do the chems that reduce the light output cause the glow to last longer overall?

    Make neon dodge balls so when they hit they explode. Great vid as well

    You should try putting a ton of the blue mixture through a laminar flow nozzle!

    I wonder.. Could you obtain a laminar flow with glowstick fluid?? Wonder if the brightness would change compaired to the experiment using just the pressurized container gun. Just a thought.

    Could you use the liquid from the glowbstick as rocketnfuel?

    Wow nice! Can you try glowing bubbles?

    I'm curious of the super glue dimmed the glow, did the glow then last longer?

    Hey guys, your videos got me going on foundry stuff and turned me to RUclips Red, I’m casting a bronze khopesh tomorrow in my kaowool mini foundry. I really wish you would do more castings or adult projects that I can relate too haha. I’m burned out on the kid stuff..... maybe primitive bows?🤨

    Put the glowfluid in your table vortex fontain and look how it get into it.. and mix it with soap water

    if the activator is so oily can we burn it?
    i mean try mix some glow stick activator with the green flame formula
    and see how much brighter green than the normal one
    still im not sure if glow stick will be exploded or not when touching with fire

    Hey! How about creating metal foam? sounds interesting to me.

    Glow sticks have two component: The coloured section and an oxidiser. When you heat them up the reaction goes faster, hence the increase in brightness, and the decrease in time.
    Using different strengths of oxidiser will speed up or slow down the reaction. I think the dish soap is a stronger oxidiser and hence is why it does that. Quite the lucky discovery there.
    Cleaning supplies often contain strong oxidisers (hence the bleach). Try pool chemicals as well.
