Gallium Liquid Metal 50 Grams, 99.99% Pure Melting Gallium - 50g Vial, Syringe, Silicone Mold Cubes, and Complete DIY Science Experiment Guide

Everything I have seen online makes it look like it melts in your hand like chocolate on a hot day. In reality it took quite a while to melt, at least for me. I guess that makes sense. Ice takes a while to melt and your hand is 50f or so above the melting point. For this it is only a few degrees at best. In hot water it melts fairly quickly but takes a while to solidify. Still cool.

Taste awful

my son loves it!

Good fun. I dont know if its 99.9xx percent pure, as it didnt alloy clean with Sn and In, but its definitely gallium.

I mean it is what it is. A melting metal. Its gets everywhere. Even with adult supervision its super messy. Leaves residue every where. And god forbid you drip and its gets on your couch or rug. It aint coming up.

Seems to be very pure. It was pure silver in color when I first started playing with it but has developed a matte coating over time. Its probably normal oxidation but I cant say for sure. Its a fun demonstration tool when discussing melting points and physical elemental states.

This stuff is awesome! Watch you tube for Different experiments - way cool stuff!!

My son loves it. Washes off hands easily .

Just as I thought-makes a mess. My child begged for this for months. I waited until Christmas, and against my better judgement, I got it. I knew it would not be as great as he hoped. It has to be heated to become fluid. However, it dries very fast and becomes a hard or crumbly mess. Hard to get off surfaces. Left a gray smear like pencil lead all around the kitchen. It will wipe away with a little scrubbing.
