Neck cooler filler
I loved these polymers for my sewing class making neck coolers. Awesome product. I work at Nuttalls Bernina Sewing Store.

Not for cloud slime
Makes a gel consistency. Gives slime more of an orange peel texture rather than “Cloud”. I dont think it meant to be for slime so I can’t fault the product

Great for fun and science lesson
I used this as an educational tool for what happens when we add something to a molecular structure. What helped even more was the package suggesting to add salt and watch the water separate from the product. More scientific schooling in that. Now it’s being used in homemade squishy things. The smell is rubbery but not overpowering. It stays on the state you mix it too. We’ve had some made for over a week and no separation. Fun on many levels for kids especially for those that need that tactile experience.

exactly what I was looking for
Exactly what I wanted. Made a few ice-packs with the stuff using zipper-seal bags. Took a bit of experimentation to get a preferred consistency. It does freeze as solid as regular water (great for ice chest use). The packs I made for muscle/joint soothing stay in the refrigerator as cool-packs, I just swap 'em out after they warm up. Also can be microwaved a short time to be used as a warm-pack. Note: this stuff can squeeze through the zipper seal over time so it's best to either permanently heat-seal the bag or at least double-bag. For ice-packs I found a 5:1 ratio of water to rubbing alcohol loosens it up a little so it doesn't freeze completely solid so quickly. best to add the rubbing alcohol after the sodium polyacrylate has had time to fully absorb the water.
