Whats the deal with plastic?

Recommended Posts

funky thing i just discovered at 1:00am...when you get plastic REALLY cold (like frost bite cold) its gets REALLY plyable....kinda wierd...try it yoruself. get one of thoes air dusting cans and a CD, then spray the airdusting can on the CD upside down so the liquid comes out...drench it, once there is enough room to pick it up w/o getting frost bite you will find it distorted and easy to bend... :P

Haha, How did you come upon this discovery?

A funner thing to do with cds is put them on a dremel tool and let them spin off. They roll around for quite sometime.

the weird thing is after it warms back up to near room temperature it goes back to its original shape.

i was just sitting in the shop searching in internet and then i saw an old backup DVD with a new pack of air cans sitting next to it. so i get one of the aircans out and start fewwzing paper and cardboard and then i was like "hey, plastic gets brittle when it gets cold desnt it?" only in my head. so i spray in one spot and it gets kinda warped but as soon as the frost goes away it goes back...so i decided to drench the whole thing... when i picked it up i could bend it back and forth really easily. then i drenched it agian and threw it agianst the floor really hard...it didnt shadder or brake or anything it just kinda got more distorted...but when it warmed back up it went back to normal... so i tried it on an unburnt CD-R and the same thing happened...

now i have to go find my dremel tool :D
