Would you like to have a go at making eggshell ceramics?
Or making a hat from seaweed?
With this book, you can do fun experiments with materials on your own or with a friend. The experiments use bio-based ingredients that are recycled or that come from nature. The clear instructions are well illustrated and aimed at children and young people.
The experiments have been developed and tested in the CHEMARTS courses in Aalto University, Finland. The courses combine chemistry, materials science, and design in a creative way.
It is essential that we understand materials and use them wisely so that our limited resources will be sufficient for everyone, now and in the future. Learn about materials by experimenting with them!
