"Leaping Ferrofluid" Demonstration

[FireToned]

idk why iam still clicking on ferofluid videos after the next

[imthetank3]

nice quiality, this guy doesnt own calculators.

[INMATE2468]

Is that poisonous? ?

[lolzpro12]

@INMATE2468 No it's harmless

[MxC1337MxCsh43d]

I WANNA PLAY WITH IT SO BAD!!!

[Dinoenthusiastguy]

@MxC1337MxCsh43d It can be bought at many science stores, or on eBay. I'm thinking of getting some myself.

[aureusyarara]

question: the spikes that form. If you touch them (wear gloves if you want) do they feel solid or amazingly liquid in cone form??

[Dinoenthusiastguy]

@aureusyarara Yes, they are still completely fluid.

[MrCatalystic]

How do you get the ferro-fluid off the magnet???

[Bozanaitor]

50 mL of laserjet toner, 2tablespoons of vegetable oil. mixem up, buy an earth magnet (like buckyballs or nanospheres) and you got yourself your own ferro fluid

[chanclasmiadaz]

cool

[andreasss007]

it seems so smooth..what if sombody drinks that?

[crosseyedcat101]

is it just me, or is the hedgehog looking ball of ferrofluid running up the tube strangely adorable... I want it :3

[daniel876542]

@crosseyedcat101 your imagination but the hedgehog looking ball looks strangely adorable

[ItsTylerMarie]

Can I get this stuff at walgreens?

[dynagravitomagnetic]

This is the key component to build a gravity engine. The fluid is placed in a suitable container. A poly phase induction coil is placed in close proximity to the container, An electric current induces the fluid to circulate rapidly, causing the center of the fluid to vortex, and "implode". The centripetal effect pulls a frame of space/time and causes a local distortion field, or "event horizon" which warps gravity.

[dynagravitomagnetic]

Is this real or CGI?

[ExploreTheNanoworld]

@dynagravitomagnetic - 100% real.

[dynagravitomagnetic]

@ExploreTheNanoworld using an alloy aluminum sphere or dough-nut (toroidial) container and electric windings, you could create a "marconi vortex dynamo" or "super fluid gravity centrifuge". Were you aware of this?

[ReviewingTheApps]

@dynagravitomagnetic its magnetic fluid, works like picking cobalt, iron or nickel with magnets, it doesnt have to touch

[dynagravitomagnetic]

@ReviewingTheApps I believe a fluid of special variant having the same characteristics is required to assemble a marconi vortex dynamo.

[Skitzo520]

@dynagravitomagnetic you can do this yourself =3

[dynagravitomagnetic]

@Skitzo520 currently I am assembling the embodiment with camtex poly vinyl chloride casing. the last time I used copper alloy casing that is no longer available. the problems facing my efforts are because I feel that people will not benefit in any way from new technology because there is a strong mind set to degrade and repress it if they cannot steal it and profit from it. - so why bother. People (society) need(s) to "grow up".

[Karvenate]

super mario GALAXY! Any ways, how do you make the spikes for it? :3

[dudey7ftw]

Why is this so funny to me?

[Blayros]

I got an idea...... put this shit in the oil we ship around the globe and when we got a spill in the water we just put a giant electro magnet into it and pick it up.....???

[mariovslink3]

@Blayros because magnets in cars is such a good idea!

[JonathanTheGreat09]

@Blayros oil doesn't naturally have small particles of iron in it like this ferrofluid does. so that wouldn't work.

[jaminthejam]

@Blayros firstly oil isnt magnetic , so if you mix it to make it magnetic how are you going to use it in the standard engine ?? its made of metal. Secondly If you do take it out before using it in an engine whats the point in putting it in in the first place!!!!

[jaminthejam]

[Blayros]

@jaminthejam :) thanks for the reply :) It was just an idea to ease the cleanup of oil spills..... I never said it would work and I don't have the education to know..... one idea coming from one person might spark another idea in another persons mind..... so if I made someone more clever than me think about how to use this in effect.... well then I've done my job :) have a nice day m8

[AusQuitzau]

@jaminthejam You know what - nobody hears you offering any ideas on how to help stop oil spills now do they?

[crimsonnrose]

@Blayros yea ferroBP

[15Protech]

@Blayros hahaha, that would make the oil useless, you would endupp with iron residue in all oil using utilitys, and in other words your car would explode some day

[Spinderfly]

@Blayros Bad plan. A lot of sea animals migrate using the earth's magnetic field. We'd muck them up.

Plus, it would make the oil unusable.

[1992account]

@Blayros as long as you spend 6 hours a day scraping the residue out of my cars engine

[madjimms]

@1992account i think they would remove it during refining....

[Poliphorum]

@Blayros It doesn't work that way. Only the ferrofluid would be affected by the magnet, and none of the oil or water.

[Blayros]

@Poliphorum I know :)

[primeEmu16]

@Blayros maybe...but i would think it'd affect the performance of machinery...honestly though I think America should pioneer technologies into renewable energy...It'd open up so many jobs and help the economy...

[ime1337]

@Blayros good luck with that. tell me how your car runs with magnetized oil in it. or at the very least, polar oil. because cars, and other machinery that require fluids, require those fluid to be very precisely what they need to be. thats why water in your coolant is okay, but water in your brake fluid or gas tank is VERY VERY BAD.

[leroyvanriet]

@Blayros if you put this in oil 1 thing would be if you try too lift it up out of water only this fluid ( the parts in the oil ) would go up cause still the oil itself remains oil so not magnetic,

second would be if they could somehow combine those 2 that they will never go appart ... we'd have to change how everything works with oil cause well yeah it has an second ingredient in it that wasnt there so,, it's a good idea but sadly not possible :P

[RagingBubuli]

@Blayros It will worsen the toxic conditions man.

[tehcheeseitman]

@Blayros we actually use this stuff in machines to stop debris from getting into engines. pretty close there ^^

[Blayros]

@tehcheeseitman well then I guess the rest of the people putting me down for being stupid really has to apologize to me now :) thanks for the reply man :) have a nice day

[ThePsycheoutFanClub]

@Blayros Not gonna work man :(. Ferrofluid flows right through the oil to the poles of the magnet it would bring the oil with it. =\

[Nomnomzombie990]

@Blayros At first I thought: Not a bad idea. But I'm thinking it'll probably do some bad shit to our cars.

[HandfullOfWoop]

@Blayros Not practical. To first fuse the oil with iron and then remove it when the oil is at its destination would be costly and time consuming. I don't even know if there's a way to separate the oil from the iron.

[ronsinsane]

@HandfullOfWoop From my understanding the oil would only act as a carrier fluid, meaning that the majority of the oil would be left in the ocean anyway, unless you were to use incredible amounts of Ferrofluid particles in the mixture.

That's also not assuming the Ferrofluid particles doesn't simply use the ocean water as a carrier and separate from the oil entirely.

[l0otKr3w]

@Blayros But will the oil fell off?

[noxagol]

@Blayros Good idea, unless the ferrofluid fucks your engine up.

[reynoldsvideos]

@Blayros i think you should make this happen

[Namestopable]

@Blayros I dont think it would work because it contains Magnetite, it is said to be the most magnetic of natural orccurences, in large ammounts it could cause the controls in the ship to fail. It depends mostly on the amount that's in it, the ammount of magnetic force, ect. Too little and it wont pick up the oil, too much and then people would be loosing money for sending less oil... and i doubt it would work very well for anything... nice idea though

[GZxModzz]

@Blayros You have just been awarded the professional next level genious award.

[Blayros]

@GZxModzz I don't know if you just handed my ass to me or gave me a pad on the shoulder :D

[htomerif]

its weird that so many people are wrong. laser toner is made of carbon and hydrocarbon (plastic) and is very much not ferromagnetic. laser printers work from electrostatic attraction, not magnetism. a heating element binds the toner to the paper. (please delete this comment if the whole point was to fxxk with people)

[AlasterDarc]

@htomerif Actually, Ferrofluids don't display ferromagnetism. In fact, they display paramagnetism, and are often described as "superparamagnetic" due to their large magnetic susceptibility.

[htomerif]

@AlasterDarc Yeah... huh. I just read the wikipedia article too. doesnt change that toner isnt either of those, but something doesnt seem to make sense here. Im pretty sure inductor cores are ferromagnetic, and they have no residual field when theres no applied current. specifically silicon steel is used in a lot of transformers and its ferromagnetic

[htomerif]

@AlasterDarc derp. maybe its got something to do with the material organizing itself internally into magnetic domains vs. truely random moment arangements. in which case yeah, ferrofluids wouldnt have particle sizes large enough to form different domains really.

[Ronald3570]

lol i still have no idea why it makes little needles all over itself.

[baggens55]

i think its because of the way the magnetic field goes

[DeDarksithlorD]

You can also make this

you just need:-

*laser printer toner

*vegitabe oil

just mix these and use a magnet to attract

[MAbaabyx3]

lol household hacker

[DeDarksithlorD]

no i made this like 3 years ago

[Oub2]

any laser printer toner is ok?

Doesn't it need to be a MAGNETIC printer toner?

[kitsuneflame]

any laser printer toner works, because they are all magnetic. they printers use magnets to suck the toner onto the paper in the form it wants, then uses lasers to melt it into place.

[DeDarksithlorD]

yeah if you need some i can give it to u for free

[94thts]

@DeDarksithlorD How come laser printer toner is magnetic?

[DeDarksithlorD]

@94thts  because a laser printer uses magnets to attract the toner to the paper and then uses a laser to turn the toner into letters or graphs etc. suscribe to me for more details............

[94thts]

@DeDarksithlorD Very cool, didn't know that :) I gotta try that some day :P

[robinheil]

oh thats so nasty and cool!!!!!!! it reminds me of the black oil from the x-files

[SmilingJack100]

This stuff is so amazing!

[shadowdude77]

You can buy this at United Nuclear. That's where I got mine. It can be re-used indefinitely unless you do something with it like in this video, where, as you can see in the end, it got all over the outside of the test tube. You COULD try and remove it from the test tube, but it's not an easy task.

[mrphilthify]

vegetable oil and prining toner is how to make it home made

[40200395]

where can i buy this? and can i use it more than once? like i using it packs it away and using it again????
