Yes, you can use just water in the Orbeez machine to create the gel-like beads. The machine typically requires water to hydrate and expand the Orbeez, which are made from a superabsorbent polymer. Just ensure that you follow the manufacturer's instructions for the specific machine you are using for the best results.
When growing Orbeez, it's best to use room temperature or lukewarm water. Hot water can damage the beads and prevent them from expanding properly, while cold water may slow down the absorption process. Room temperature water helps ensure optimal soaking and allows the Orbeez to expand to their full size effectively.
To dissolve Orbeez, you can place them in a bowl of warm water and leave them to soak for several hours. The Orbeez will gradually absorb the water and start to break down, eventually turning into a slimy texture. It's important to dispose of the Orbeez properly after use, as they should not be flushed down the drain due to the risk of clogging.
The purer the water the bigger the Orbeez. If you use distilled water, your Orbeez will grow as large as possible Different person: NOT true! They do NOT grow bigger in distilled water. I tried it. SORRY! Actually very true. If you look at it scientifically distilled water will difuse eaiser through the Orbeez than regular water would. The reason it didn't work for you is that the water and the substance in the Orbeez had reached equilibrium and had no reason to diffuse any longer. Michael: the person who says the orbeez go bigger in distilled water is wrong. Try putting the water in a cup and microwave it for 5 minutes then add the orbeez they will grow faster. Bearpaw6:The first person was right it even says it on there website.DUH!!
Well if you have another bathtub then use it because if the pipe has no water in it the orbeez will dry out and go into the sewer easily without blocking the drain
Orbeez, which are superabsorbent polymer beads, do not grow as effectively in cold water compared to warm or hot water. While they will still absorb some water and expand in cold temperatures, the process is significantly slower, and the final size may be smaller than if they were soaked in warm water. For optimal results, it is recommended to use warm water for soaking Orbeez.
No, it only depends how many little Orbeez you have.
any water works but if there is fish in it then probably no. But why would you want to anyway? why cant you use a bowl or something?
Orbeez are typically made of a superabsorbent polymer called sodium polyacrylate. This polymer has the ability to absorb and hold a significant amount of water, leading to the characteristic texture and feel of Orbeez. They are non-toxic and considered safe for use in sensory play activities.
If you put too much salt on Orbeez, it can cause the Orbeez to shrink and lose their ability to absorb water properly. This is because the salt disrupts the osmotic balance of the Orbeez, causing water to move out of the Orbeez instead of being absorbed. As a result, the Orbeez may become dehydrated and lose their characteristic texture and appearance. It is important to follow the instructions for Orbeez use carefully to avoid this issue.
Put them in coke or Pepsi and they should grow the size of a baseball
Yep, just make sure to strain it first to get rid of any pulp.
I use laundry detergent, water, and a washing machine to wash my clothes.
