Try a product called Perfect Cast. It comes in a 4lb bag. It's powdered plaster that's 5x times stronger than normal plaster. I was messing with it to create molds and realized I could use it for wood working projects as a filler as it is cheaper and easier to work with. It sands really well. I haven't tried staining it but it does say it can be stained on the bag. Very useful to have around as a filler for repairs. Mixes with water at 3:1 ratio. Oh and buy it at hobby lobby for $7.50, Amazon is about twice that. Definitely a little hack I ran into accidentally.
@@joycependleton4117 I created a small vacuum mold to create dental clear aligners. It doesn't work well for that though as it sticks too well inside and then cracks when you flex the clear aligner. Could be used in other instances with better molds like silicone.
Pro tip: always wear a respirator or an FFP mask that covers your mouth and nose when working with fine aluminium (or most other metal) powder. That stuff is horrible if it gets into your lungs and the fine powders spread realy easily. I use them for pyrotechnics and only open the jar under a fumehood.

Imagine trying to sell this house years down the road. There's burn marks on the driveway, bouncy balls in the garden, and now a paper plate glued to the porch.
I used to work in an engineering consulting center for adhesives, I've done tons of experiments with all types of cyanoacrilate adhesives (superglue). When you blow on a superglue to make it cure faster, what you're really doing is adding moisture from your breath. It's not reacting at all with anything you mix it into other than the moisture content. When you mix a fine powder with superglue, you're giving it a ton of surface area that has moisture on it to react with. In addition, the reaction speed increases with temperature.
Bravo! Someone understands the chemistry behind what is being witnessed. This was exactly what I imagined was actually happening. Thanks for illuminating the effects. Some people advocate refrigerating the glue bottles to prolong their material usability - I am not sure how well that works, especially as the glue will precipitate condensation on and in the bottle and glue with the result of accelerating its polymerization. I put my bottles in a tightly closed mason jar with silica gel adsorbent/desiccant and only use it when the relative ambient humidity is low. In veterinary medicine we use tissue CA glue to reoppose clean wound edges. It polymerizes quickly due to the moisture in the tissues.
This was probably already mentioned somewhere in the comments but the graphite powder can be sprinkled on top of newly poured epoxy to give it a textured effect and make it appear similar to other stone-like countertops.

I have used super glue and baking soda to repair a cracked off section of a guitar nut. This is the plastic or nylon bar at the top of the neck that the strings rest on. My high e string would not set in the slot as it was broken off. I have totally forgotten about the repair and played the guitar for years with no issues
I burned both corneas twice, then two weeks later I could see clearly again, so I read the instructions. ventilation, eye protection. Ten years later, I'm still allergic to balsa dust & super glue fumes. I'm old, so healing way slower now. Twice as cautious now

Every guitar-tech on this planet knows the bakingsoda-superglue trick. When the slot of a guitar-nut becomes to deep (from wear or if you accidently filed it a stroke to deep while adjusting the guitars action) and you don't want to remake a complete nut, you can fill up the bottom slot with thix mixtures since it makes a almost glass-hard composite.

@@thomaskaiser148 pyroplastic. The super glue won't wash out the saltpeter. There also a chance it could ignite during cure. Not a big chance, but a chance all the same, considering it can be ignited by flipping a light switch across the room
A word of caution: while using superglue on a wood model, I burned my eyes with the fumes. My eyes actually bled, causing blurred vision and a lot of pain. Even the supposed CA with no fumes can be harmful. Just for your information.
Well, it's inherently volatile. But that's only an issue if you don't ensure that nothing that evaporates from the workpiece can get into your eyes, like via a full-face respirator or strong exhaust fan.
The Tacocrew Wrong, they’re control variables, rather than ‘controlled’ variables. The point is that they’re the things that you control to be the same in every reaction to make it fair.
I gotta admit tho - this was the 7th video maybe I watched on the superglue+baking soda trick, but it was, and continues to be, the only one mentioning any rise in temperature. all the others tell you the baking soda "dries it faster". I honestly didnt immediately equate that to "jumps to 200+ degrees F". definitely subscribing to King Random here, assuming he keeps his face on. Wear goggles dude.

@@JoachimVampire He hammered the egg with a chisel, which is way more force per square inch than most vehicles with their weight spread out over their wheels. Do you really think asphalt would stand up to a hammer and chisel any better?
I absolutely love you guys keeping your videos up during such a dark time brighten my day so much you will never know how much we the tkor family appreciate all you do
Well, this is all rather fascinating, but I'd like to see some durability tests of the different end products. I've seen where the graphite mix becomes quite hard to the point where someone had a hard time drilling it. Interesting how the glue reacts with different compounds, just would like to see some practical applications for each one.
I have a lawn mower bag catcher ...plastic splitting at the rivet joints .....I used the thin super glue with baking powder....it took several layers but BAMB! It has fixed the issue and for two years now
Are you sure everyone becomes allergic? I had a buddy of mine tell me he was allergic to cayenne pepper once because it burns him when he eats it. I told him that's what cayenne pepper does.
@@josephwilliams1915 I just know what the doctor in a hobby magazine said. He's qualified to separate allergies from not pepper. But it is nothing but an expert opinion. That and $4.00 will get you coffee at Starbucks. Personally, I'm careful with the stuff. I use it only in small quantities in exceptionally well ventilated areas.
AS a woodturner, I have made many inlays and filling of cracks using plastic powders, brass powder, coffee grounds and other things. For example, make a groove in the rim of a bowl, put the powdered material in, drop in thin CA, and voila'. I enjoy your videos.
By "catalyze," I think you mean "polymerize." Catalysis is the initiation of a reaction between two or more substances by an environmental factor. However, "polymerize" means to form ionic bonds.
@@latouselatrec A catalyzed reaction is a chemical reaction in which an environmental factor allows for intermediate reactions that require less energy and typically proceed faster.
Thats a right old modellers trick that is! I use it myself for my ww2 models for filling any gaps in no filler about! Easy sanded smooth and paints over no problem with brush or airbrush works with salt too! Amazing how it gets to that temp yet doesn't melt your plastic models! Does no damage what so ever! Baking soda is always the go too for us modellers than anything else really.
I wonder how superglue and iron filings would work? You can gather the iron filings with a magnet, a strong one is best. Have the magnet underneath the filings to affect their magnetic orientation, hopefully you can get it mixed before it sets. It would be interesting to see how that turns out.
You should always wear a dust mask, when handling aluminum powder. During the filming of "The Wizard of Oz", Buddy Ebsen was playing the Tin Man, and he became very sick. After a long hospital stay, they determined that the cause of the illness was his Tin Man make-up. The make-up people would apply a base of white foundation make-up to his face, neck, and hands, then apply aluminum powder, by putting it in a rag and pouncing it on the base coat. This caused Ebsen to inhale the powder, affecting hi lungs.
The super glue and powder trick is something that model makers and RC balsa builders have used since cyanoacrylate glues came on the scene. Makes great fillets for extra strength. I used to use a thing called Micro Balloons but baking soda would work too.
no its that the chemicals in the things were found in there and the chemicals already would react raw so the person DID know that it would be hot. Maybe.
Exothermic reactions play a huge role in working in Composites. When building Carbon Fiber and Fiberglass aircraft components you have to mix the resins in small batches. Large batches will go exothermic and will ruin the parts or repairs you are working on.
Did You Two have ANY skin break-outs or Lung problems after that? Because some of Us RC airplane Modelers have Big Break-out problems with SMALL amounts of the same brand products.
I just saw this video. The ideas you tried at the end for casting items would be useful for making bezels to wrap around coins so they can be worn as a necklace. I wonder if a 3D made mold made of nylon would be better at releasing the casting. Also it would be interesting to see the reaction between the different super glue mixes and the different commercially available cast release products. I live in a one bedroom apartment so random testing is not really something I can do. Making castings in a acrylic box powered vented to the outside is easy thou.
Just use resin. It's readily available formulated specifically for whatever application you want to use it for, far cheaper, able to be any color you'd like by mixing in dyes, and intended specifically for the purpose of casting. I used to use resin cast in silicon molds to flawlessly reproduce miniatures for warhammer 40k. No need to reinvent the wheel.
Cool, I knew the bi-carb trick but not the graphite powder one. I've used the bi-carb trick for fixing heaps of stuff but it can be a bit hard to work with because of the instant reaction. Looks like graphite's a bit easier to work with for the same result and might even be a bit harder/ stronger being that graphite is powdered carbon. Mix some carbon fibre in there as well and it would be strong asf.
Please, please, *please* wear masks when you handle metal powders, guys. They can be extremely hazardous and easily inhaled, and I don't think you want to have metal particles/particulates entering your lungs/respiratory system. It's bad news.
I work in a salt mine and the inner core part of my boot string was separated from the outer and kept sliding down so i tried to repair in with super glue and it smoked pretty bad... The fumes got in my eye and it bothered me literally all day.
One thing I was curious about: Could you check conductivity (or resistance) of the graphite castings? I'm wondering how much coupling between powder grains there is. If they're not touching, the resistance should be pretty high but otherwise, it opens up a few interesting possibilities. Old carbon resistors were made by compressing graphite powder with talc in various ratios to get different values and when you mentioned mixing with epoxy, it reminded me of a conductive paste made using powdered silver and epoxy for repairing pcb tracks.
With carbon, you can buy regular pigment grade fine carbon black, or a conductive grade.. which has different surface structure that promotes interconnection in a composite matrix. I never saw much happen with graphite powder in an adhesive matrix, but YMMV.
Yes, @@yann664 . There is also an entire range of products made that way deliberately to conduct electricity. We use them in the electronics industry because many devices made with the various MOS technologies are extremely static sensitive so packaging, plastic container tubs, black foam inserts, etc. all conduct electricity, albeit with high resistance/low conductivity but enough to form a DC path to earth or otherwise, dissipate any built up static charge. One place I worked actually got lino designed and manufactured with the company logo and in the corporate colours but with millions of embedded black plastic flecks in order to dissipate static charge. We all wore ankle straps that had a conductive strip that tucked into the sock and another conductive rubber strip that made contact with the lino as we walked around.
I worked as a plastic injection mold maker. We used Eastman 910 glue to repair graphite electrodes that were used in electrical discharge machines (EDM) to burn cavities for the molds. The conductivity was not affected.
Another great use for the graphite powder is to rub down silver paint. I airbrush silver acrylic over plastic, then apply the graphite powder. makes it look like metal. it's an awesome technique - give it a try.
Superglues (cyanoacrylates) use a weak acid as a stabiliser. The reaction you see is the exotherm generated when you 'knock out' the stabiliser with a weak base and the material rapidly polymerises into a thermoplastic solid. You will get a similar reaction if you spill the adhesive onto cloth material, such as cotton. (Never use cotton glove when working with CA's, unless you want to burn yourself badly). I worked for the worlds largest CA manufacture for 20 years. One interesting application we worked on was poison pill for controlling invasive rabbits and possums in New Zealand. It was a poison pill coated in CA that was then rolled in a mixture of dried apple and cinnamon. These animals had teeth strong enough to break through the plastic and were subsequently killed by the poison. Any of the local animals that ingested the pill, were unaffected because it passed through their digestive systems and remained intact.
I think this would be worth revisiting with a mold release; microcrystalline wax, silicone spray, etc. This is friggin' awesome for quick molded parts. :D

Thanks for the video. I have been using thin superglue (CA) for nearly 20 years in woodworking. CA is a near perfect glue for wood repair. It's primary negative is that it cannot be stained easily. CA can be stained, but it takes a lot of skill and talent to pull it off successfully. Baking Soda is a strong contender for a quick and easy replacement to the traditional filler. Fine, pure sanding dust from multiple species of wood that can be blended to match the base wood color of your stock. The one thing I have always desired was a cheap, easily colored filler to replace the expensive wood and water based stains I have used in the past. The best part of the video was the molds. The practical application for CA and mold making goes way beyond props. With what you have shown in this video, I can save hundreds on decorative wood hardware. It's nothing unusual to pay north of $100 for a single corner bracket that resembled cast iron. Usually, I would use such hardware to cover the structural hardware used. The potential to use graphite and aluminum dust is exciting. For the base cost of one bracket I could buy enough supplies to make every piece of decorative hardware I want for my next project. To buy all the pieces I want for the project, I am looking at a base cost of about $1,000. Thanks again for the video, I can hardly wait to start experimenting with this.

A word of caution: while using superglue on a wood model, I burned my eyes with the fumes. My eyes actually bled, causing blurred vision and a lot of pain. Even the supposed CA with no fumes can be harmful. Just for your information.
Well, it's inherently volatile.
But that's only an issue if you don't ensure that nothing that evaporates from the workpiece can get into your eyes, like via a full-face respirator or strong exhaust fan.
CA?
@@kish1865
Cyanoacrylate. It's the primary ingredient of superglue and crazy glue and every other brand of rapid curing adhesive.
Should use superglue to fix your eyes
Thanks forkeeping up the legacy!!!
Metal filings from a bench grinder and medium super glue work really well for patching together broken headlight brackets on cars.

How did you figure that out!? Awesome thanks
Do u do MOTs? Lol
Hey this is a great idea!
And many other thing..
Independent variable: What you mix together
Dependent variable: The reaction
Controlled variable: The table
Steel Current controlled variable is what you mix since it's what you change, and independent is the table since it doesn't change
What why did you comment this
@@gri5in862 do not question the mighty one
The Tacocrew Wrong, they’re control variables, rather than ‘controlled’ variables. The point is that they’re the things that you control to be the same in every reaction to make it fair.
Constantinople, 1054 So by controlling them they become what, controlled?
I love how Nate just casually says “yup that’s burning hot to touch it” I need that level of calmness in my life
I gotta admit tho - this was the 7th video maybe I watched on the superglue+baking soda trick, but it was, and continues to be, the only one mentioning any rise in temperature. all the others tell you the baking soda "dries it faster". I honestly didnt immediately equate that to "jumps to 200+ degrees F". definitely subscribing to King Random here, assuming he keeps his face on. Wear goggles dude.

what everyone else sees: graphite hardening with superglue.
what I see: new way to crate durable scale asphalt.
hoestly i don't think it is durable at all, he had to hammer a few hits into the egg, the asphalt is being squished into the ground with literal vehicles that weights tons, water is also a problem, superglue fumes... terribad... xD
Joachim Von Grimorium SCALE asphalt, which would be used for models, not actual use on real roads.
@@JoachimVampire I'm thinking at 1/87th the scale you are man.
Revus like for 40k or dnd?
@@JoachimVampire He hammered the egg with a chisel, which is way more force per square inch than most vehicles with their weight spread out over their wheels. Do you really think asphalt would stand up to a hammer and chisel any better?
"200°f" it's definitely warm..
Me: Converts 200°f to °C..
Me: "93,3°C is... Warm???"
reverse for when I check my computer's temperature
apparently yep
Just think almost boiling
210 is enough to boil water at sea level.
Graphite is an additive for epoxy to make it highly abrasion resistant. Coating bottoms of boats that will be beached a lot. Etc.

Watching two people mix chemicals and seeing how those chemicals (and Calli) react? Yes, please!
I absolutely love you guys keeping your videos up during such a dark time brighten my day so much you will never know how much we the tkor family appreciate all you do
Well, this is all rather fascinating, but I'd like to see some durability tests of the different end products. I've seen where the graphite mix becomes quite hard to the point where someone had a hard time drilling it. Interesting how the glue reacts with different compounds, just would like to see some practical applications for each one.
I have a lawn mower bag catcher ...plastic splitting at the rivet joints .....I used the thin super glue with baking powder....it took several layers but BAMB! It has fixed the issue and for two years now
I recently watched a durability test done using CA glue with other stuff. Just do a search on youtube.
You should try pouring the super glue on denim. I’ve had spills on jeans where they’ve literally caught on fire.
Oh yes, one of the joys of working with Super glue is rock hard spots on your jeans when you spill a little.😖

I wonder if the superglue is reacting with the cellulose in the cinnamon like it does with fabric?
One thing about cyanoacrylate is that with repeated exposures , EVERYONE becomes highly allergic to the stuff. And the reactions tend to be dangerous.
Why everyone?
@@WolfgangDoW I'm not sure, but I know among model airplane enthusiasts it's a major problem. Lots of people avoid the stuff.
Same thing is true for people who work with cocobolo wood. Eventually, everyone who works with it becomes allergic.
Are you sure everyone becomes allergic? I had a buddy of mine tell me he was allergic to cayenne pepper once because it burns him when he eats it. I told him that's what cayenne pepper does.
@@josephwilliams1915 I just know what the doctor in a hobby magazine said. He's qualified to separate allergies from not pepper. But it is nothing but an expert opinion. That and $4.00 will get you coffee at Starbucks.
Personally, I'm careful with the stuff. I use it only in small quantities in exceptionally well ventilated areas.
The cinnamon is grainy because it’s essentially wood pulp. Cinnamon comes from bark of a specific tree.
AMAZING to me that you two are doing experimenting without eye protection. And even breathing protection. Truly inexcusable.
Well this is America sooo…

AS a woodturner, I have made many inlays and filling of cracks using plastic powders, brass powder, coffee grounds and other things. For example, make a groove in the rim of a bowl, put the powdered material in, drop in thin CA, and voila'. I enjoy your videos.
This is the most random thing ever and thats why youse are the king of random

It would be fascinating to see the shear and compression strength of the resulting solids.
That's what I was wondering about too, along with adhesive strength.
By "catalyze," I think you mean "polymerize." Catalysis is the initiation of a reaction between two or more substances by an environmental factor. However, "polymerize" means to form ionic bonds.
ahh i think you are wrong .A catalyzed reaction is a chemical reaction.
@@latouselatrec A catalyzed reaction is a chemical reaction in which an environmental factor allows for intermediate reactions that require less energy and typically proceed faster.
@@sciencestararvinsinghk and what is the environmental factor
Waiting for the debate to go on...
Polymerisation forms covalent bonds. Usually bonds between carbon silicon or oxygen atoms.

Nice experiment. I appreciate how the curiosity led the entire show.
kind of cool but appropriate protective gear like goggles and mask or a face shield are warranted as well as working under a fume hood
Thats a right old modellers trick that is! I use it myself for my ww2 models for filling any gaps in no filler about! Easy sanded smooth and paints over no problem with brush or airbrush works with salt too! Amazing how it gets to that temp yet doesn't melt your plastic models! Does no damage what so ever! Baking soda is always the go too for us modellers than anything else really.

I wonder how superglue and iron filings would work? You can gather the iron filings with a magnet, a strong one is best. Have the magnet underneath the filings to affect their magnetic orientation, hopefully you can get it mixed before it sets. It would be interesting to see how that turns out.
You should always wear a dust mask, when handling aluminum powder. During the filming of "The Wizard of Oz", Buddy Ebsen was playing the Tin Man, and he became very sick. After a long hospital stay, they determined that the cause of the illness was his Tin Man make-up. The make-up people would apply a base of white foundation make-up to his face, neck, and hands, then apply aluminum powder, by putting it in a rag and pouncing it on the base coat. This caused Ebsen to inhale the powder, affecting hi lungs.
The aluminum paste make up they used on Jack Haley after Ebsen left was just as bad. He ended up with a bad eye infection from it.
They also used asbestos for all the snow scenes
Never seen 'pouncing' used thusly. Strange...but weird.
@@lancethrustworthy that's that thing ppl do when they're patting on powder makeup w a puff ball
Check Your facts: Buddy Ebsen did NOT play the Tin Man.
If the cinnamon still smells like cinnamon after the mixing with superglue, it would make a great wood filler
Now that’s a thought
@@carbonbeaker409 just imagine it though. That would be heavenly
Amazing. Maybe mix in some ground clove
@@carbonbeaker409 heck, why don't we just make a whole spice mix?

The fleur-de-lis looked like brushed nickel when you polished it.
You have given me great ideas of what to use this for. Fantastic research and testing on your part. Thank you for sharing your experiences.
I guess the superglue and gloves were so expensive they couldn't afford eye protection.
@Mike Oxmall: You're sure that's a cigarette? :>
The heck with glues, the drawing is worth seeing, such soft blended beauty!
Fill out holes in timber with wood dust from a belt sander and superglue, sand it off .perfect.
Wow this is cool mixing different items with super glue
The super glue and powder trick is something that model makers and RC balsa builders have used since cyanoacrylate glues came on the scene. Makes great fillets for extra strength. I used to use a thing called Micro Balloons but baking soda would work too.
This isn't the same, the baking soda reacts with the superglue as a catalyst instead of just being a filler / composite material.
That cinnamon and super glue had a totally unexpected reaction!
I just wanna know what human was sitting around and thought "hm, wonder what'll happen if I combine super glue and cinnamon"
"Baking soda is a powder, what other powders do we have on hand?"
A kid making magic dust.....lol
Cody Evans that would be us!
no its that the chemicals in the things were found in there and the chemicals already would react raw so the person DID know that it would be hot. Maybe.
Because of baking soda
When I see what you're going to attempt to do I often think "Why?".
Then you start the project, and I go "oh, wow!".
Exothermic reactions play a huge role in working in Composites. When building Carbon Fiber and Fiberglass aircraft components you have to mix the resins in small batches. Large batches will go exothermic and will ruin the parts or repairs you are working on.
Someone: Hey, I have cinnamon and a gallon of super glue what will happen?
Science: Some random stuff that only we know.
Did You Two have ANY skin break-outs or Lung problems after that? Because some of Us RC airplane Modelers have Big Break-out problems with SMALL amounts of the same brand products.
I just saw this video. The ideas you tried at the end for casting items would be useful for making bezels to wrap around coins so they can be worn as a necklace. I wonder if a 3D made mold made of nylon would be better at releasing the casting. Also it would be interesting to see the reaction between the different super glue mixes and the different commercially available cast release products. I live in a one bedroom apartment so random testing is not really something I can do. Making castings in a acrylic box powered vented to the outside is easy thou.
Just use resin. It's readily available formulated specifically for whatever application you want to use it for, far cheaper, able to be any color you'd like by mixing in dyes, and intended specifically for the purpose of casting.
I used to use resin cast in silicon molds to flawlessly reproduce miniatures for warhammer 40k. No need to reinvent the wheel.

Cool, I knew the bi-carb trick but not the graphite powder one. I've used the bi-carb trick for fixing heaps of stuff but it can be a bit hard to work with because of the instant reaction. Looks like graphite's a bit easier to work with for the same result and might even be a bit harder/ stronger being that graphite is powdered carbon. Mix some carbon fibre in there as well and it would be strong asf.
Please, please, *please* wear masks when you handle metal powders, guys. They can be extremely hazardous and easily inhaled, and I don't think you want to have metal particles/particulates entering your lungs/respiratory system. It's bad news.
Nate, Calli, if the two of you want silicosis, then start throwing pottery. Make sure you mix your own glazes, too.
smh
From what i know, graphite is for epoxy to make it self lubricating, like a slick coat
I work in a salt mine and the inner core part of my boot string was separated from the outer and kept sliding down so i tried to repair in with super glue and it smoked pretty bad... The fumes got in my eye and it bothered me literally all day.
You should always wear goggles and a respirator mask when repairing boot strings 🤔
One thing I was curious about: Could you check conductivity (or resistance) of the graphite castings? I'm wondering how much coupling between powder grains there is. If they're not touching, the resistance should be pretty high but otherwise, it opens up a few interesting possibilities. Old carbon resistors were made by compressing graphite powder with talc in various ratios to get different values and when you mentioned mixing with epoxy, it reminded me of a conductive paste made using powdered silver and epoxy for repairing pcb tracks.
With carbon, you can buy regular pigment grade fine carbon black, or a conductive grade.. which has different surface structure that promotes interconnection in a composite matrix. I never saw much happen with graphite powder in an adhesive matrix, but YMMV.
@@gertnood, thank you. That's very interesting and informative.
Yes, @@yann664 . There is also an entire range of products made that way deliberately to conduct electricity. We use them in the electronics industry because many devices made with the various MOS technologies are extremely static sensitive so packaging, plastic container tubs, black foam inserts, etc. all conduct electricity, albeit with high resistance/low conductivity but enough to form a DC path to earth or otherwise, dissipate any built up static charge. One place I worked actually got lino designed and manufactured with the company logo and in the corporate colours but with millions of embedded black plastic flecks in order to dissipate static charge. We all wore ankle straps that had a conductive strip that tucked into the sock and another conductive rubber strip that made contact with the lino as we walked around.
I worked as a plastic injection mold maker. We used Eastman 910 glue to repair graphite electrodes that were used in electrical discharge machines (EDM) to burn cavities for the molds. The conductivity was not affected.
The graphite powder is used on boats it's applyed to the bottom of the boat to make an abrasion proof coating
Another great use for the graphite powder is to rub down silver paint. I airbrush silver acrylic over plastic, then apply the graphite powder. makes it look like metal. it's an awesome technique - give it a try.

Superglues (cyanoacrylates) use a weak acid as a stabiliser. The reaction you see is the exotherm generated when you 'knock out' the stabiliser with a weak base and the material rapidly polymerises into a thermoplastic solid. You will get a similar reaction if you spill the adhesive onto cloth material, such as cotton. (Never use cotton glove when working with CA's, unless you want to burn yourself badly).
I worked for the worlds largest CA manufacture for 20 years. One interesting application we worked on was poison pill for controlling invasive rabbits and possums in New Zealand. It was a poison pill coated in CA that was then rolled in a mixture of dried apple and cinnamon. These animals had teeth strong enough to break through the plastic and were subsequently killed by the poison. Any of the local animals that ingested the pill, were unaffected because it passed through their digestive systems and remained intact.
Interesting. A selective mammal poison.
