Removing stains without water Removing stains without water Hi, I would love if someone could scientifically explain to me how stains (food, oil etc) stick to clothing? I have asked others how to determine the chemical bond that is created and I was told that it doesn't make one. If so, I am confused as to how stains stick and remain even after water and detergent are applied to them. We are trying to see if we can make a science project where we remove stains from a shirt without the use… Read more

Stain Removal Science fair project Stain Removal Science fair project I need to know if youthink testing stain removers is too easy for an eighth grader? NEED TO KNOW :idea: :!: Personal opinion - A basic product comparison of A vs. B would probably be too simple. If you chose an individual chemical in the stain remover and judged how the concentration of that chemical affected the stain removal - better. It still might be a little simple for the judges. Have you asked your science… Read more

Which product removes stains the best? Which product removes stains the best? Hi, I am doing a experiment on which product removes stains the best. I am going to soak a white cloth in grape juice for 30 minutes, and divide the cloth in six parts with a marker. Then I am going to pour 1 tsp of each product in their own part. I am using these six products: • Water • Dish washing liquid • Liquid laundry detergent • Stain remover • Hand soap • Bleach Do you have any suggestions or inputs, are… Read more
Are Enzymes in Laundry Detergents Effective Stain Removers?
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Some laundry detergents have added enzymes that break down proteins, helping to remove them from the cloth fibers, and thus remove stains. You can perform a scientific test of these enzymes' stain-fighting ability. Do background research on the enzyme(s) in the detergent, and on the substances you choose for making the stains. Try to predict for which substances the enzymes will be effective. Cut a piece of light-colored cotton cloth into identical 10 cm squares. Choose different… Read more

It’s happened to most of us; you wear a brand new shirt to school or work, and in the middle of lunch, get a giant ketchup stain right in the middle of the shirt. Or maybe peanut butter. Or maybe spaghetti sauce. Whatever the stain is, it’s always ugly, and can be tricky to remove. Did you know that there are many different kinds of stains, and each requires different types of cleaning to get the stain out? If you try to clean a mustard stain using shower cleaner – you… Read more
