Addictive for Bioplastic

Post by deleted-427124 »

Hello, I am doing a bioplastic experiment. I am wondering if there are substitutes for glycerol, an addictive. Thanks!

From what I remember, glycerin is the same as glycerol, right? If so, you could use either Sorbitol, Diethylene Glycol or Propylene Glycol. Sorbitol produces the best results, and should probably be used as the substitute. Please be careful when using!

Hi,
I am a seventh grader and my topic is testing the five second rule for the science fair. Is that too childish, and if so, what can I do to make it more advanced? I really need help! :cry:
