Nylon Rope Trick

[mistermuffin420]

this is so cool. I just learned about in polymer chemistry. basically one reactant (monomer) dissolves only in the aqueous phase while the other reactant dissolves only in the organic phase. Since the reaction is very fast and occurs only at the interface, the rate of reaction depends on the rate of diffusion. therefore, the polymer is produced as fast as you can pull it! awesome

It's like those boogers that you try to yank out, but they keep coming out in an endless string that tickles the inside of your nose

Wow thats really cool but kind of gross it makes me think of the people in africa and what not that get tape worms and they cut a little hole in thier flesh and pull them out as they wrap them around a twig...it looks almost identical to what this person is doing with the nylon rope and the little metal rod
