> 3 dayEverything 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.

Greater than one weekThis worked like the YouTube video my son saw & was well enjoyed. It does spread easily so keeping it contained & cleaning up careful were very important. Pricey for such a small item but he used gift money & thought it was worth it.

> 3 dayWhen you first get it, and it is in the tube, your best bet is to set the tube in some hot water, as it will take awhile for the thick cylinder of gallium to melt. But, then you can pour it out and play with it. It is messy, and will stain pretty much anything it touches. So, be careful where you play with it. You can use the syringe to pick up the liquid. What we did was to have a container of cold water ready, when we were finished playing with the liquid gallium. Place the liquid gallium right into the cold water, and it will re-solidify. Then, you can just pick it up, and put it wherever you want to store it. Once you have thinner pieces of gallium, it is pretty easy to melt it in your hand.

Greater than one weekI bought this for my 11 year old, who loves it. However, it stained his hands, and everything that came in contact, or indirect contact with. Even after washing his hands vigorously, the grey stain transferred to his entire body, clothing and furnishings. It does clean off surfaces with more pressure than the description claims. He is still trying to wash it off his body after two days. Definitely not recommend for children. It has been thrown in the garbage after one days use and $40 spent.

> 3 dayIts fun to play around with and experiment, but the syringe kinda sucks at gathering it all and you have to be careful about keeping it away from other metals.

Veteran Owned Business
Quality You Can Trust - Gallant Metals is a small yet professional veteran-owned business. You can have peace of mind knowing all of our products are of the highest quality, making them safe to use.
99.9% Pure Gallium
Contains 50 grams of 99.9% pure gallium metal. This high level of purity will help you conduct accurate and precise experiments, and makes the element safer and more predictable.
Our gallium metal is packaged inside a thick and durable plastic vial. This element won"t react to the plastic material, so you"re sure that your metal won"t get contaminated.
Gallium expands as it solidifies so don"t keep it in a sealed glass container.
Safe To Use
Unlike other metals and liquids such as mercury, gallium is the only low-melting point metal that is safe to touch. Since it is safe for humans to hold, you can experiment with it using your bare hands without your skin getting irritated or feeling itchy.
Thanks to its non-harmful composition, even your little ones can touch this silvery gallium metal using their hands without any trouble.
Washes Away Easily
Although it"s safe to touch using your bare hands, gallium metal tends to leave grayish stains on your skin because of its wet texture and oxidation. But this shouldn"t worry you one bit! All you have to do is clean your hands with warm water and soap, and you"ll be able to wash away all traces of the metal from your hand.
Be careful not to spill or touch surfaces with gallium or the residue as it will also leave gray marks on them. These can be removed with cleaning wipes.

Perfect For Different ProjectsSince this metal can transition from liquid to metal and vice versa, it can form gallium crystals once it solidifies. Which often looks like a brilliant mirror. You can easily melt them down when done and do it again. |
All The Accessories You NeedStart experimenting the moment this kit arrives. Includes a 10ml syringe, so you can easily transport liquid gallium. Silicone mold allows you to shape your liquefied gallium metal. Our comprehensive guide will take you through several activities. |
