Description: Silly Putty is an silicone polymer which is a non-Newtonian fluid, similar to slime. Its has dilatant properties, meaning that expands when sheared, resulting in an increased viscosity under stress. As a result, silly putty will form thin strands when pulled apart slowly, but will break when pulled apart sharply.
