The water melon inside was a potent illustration on why the strongest helmet will preserve your skull but not your life...
All that energy has to go somewhere.
You gotta Linex your brain for that.
that's why good helmets aren't made to be strong they are made to crush on impact, absorbing as much of the energy as possible. Also why you should replace a hemet after a fall, or really even after dropping it really (for proper motorbike helmets)
And why it's not because the bullet won't penetrate your body, that you will survive
That's why for making helmets, strength of the material is the parameter instead of its elasticity.

@@liusam651 Yeah, that's the whole point, bro.
Watermolen heh heh.
I used to work in a factory that created polyurethane foam parts for the auto industry (Cup-holders, armrests, etc). The chemicals that Line-x uses are the same as the ones that we used to make auto parts. This stuff has some amazing properties but as all of you saw it is an incredibly messy process. It's kind of crazy to think that with the right ratio of Iso and Poly and the right pressure, you can create this stuff.
However, these chemicals are an environmental disaster. Isocyanate reacts with water instantly and once it is exposed it crystallizes instantly and it is almost impossible to separate once it has made contact. Getting this stuff in your eyes, mouth, nose is horrible, you can go blind from it and it can be lethal. Plus the waste for any process involving these two chemicals is considerable. I'm surprised that the EPA hasn't shut that factory down. It was insane.
Eat your heart out Thomas Midgley Jr.!
hitting a bouncy object with an axe is a good idea
Woah.. why did you leave the work there
I agree, I also spent time in similar factories. Too bad there are no economical replacements. Maybe 3D printing in 20 years. All that PU has the deadly combo that capitalism loves. Its cheaper to make, faster to make, easier to make and stronger than most any other material in existence and it’s highly tunable. The difference in foam/plastic type you can get just by varying temp/pressure/ratio can produce a nearly infinite variety of products at practically no extra cost to the manufacturer. All the major processing tools and materials are the same. Like growing 100 different kinds of fruit from the same tree. Speaking of environmental impact, synthesizing the raw materials at plants like ones on chemical row in Louisiana. Eek, scary to see what it does to people and the environment. It’s really in everything. But it’s like what are people gonna start stuffing the seats of their Honda’s with dead leaves and coil springs?

1-2cm is not really just a 'coating'. It's a complete outer layer.
tmkr yeah, I think it expands when it dries, so it's hard to get a coating of it
tm coating means its made by spraying or coating from outside
Yes absolutely, it's like a rubber ball after the coating.
A separate outer layer is literally the definition of coating lol
@@Dgafsranger it would be more appropriate to call it a "shell." The definition of coating specifies that a "coating" must be a *thin* layern "thin" being relative to the object it coats. If a 1cm layer of poly was applied to, say, a submarine, then it would be a coating. When applied to a watermelon, it's a shell.

Precisely.
I noticed how thick the coating on that watermelon was. It wasn't a thin coat like on the paper, it was about an inch thick. Wouldn't pretty much any other common rubbery material have achieved the same result with so much coating? I think this experiment is confounded. The Line-X stuff sure is cool, but to really give a decent idea of exactly how durable it is, you'll need to find the minimum necessary coating thickness and compare it to that of other materials which may be put to the same use. It kind of makes this entire video fun but pointless. =/
That's the point of a demonstration experiment. Make it as thick as possible so that nothing will go wrong. ;)
That being said, there are not many elastic compounds that you can spray onto a watermelon. Many of the stronger ones need an oven to cure and most others a very large amount of time.

As a materials physicist it's great to see this video bringing some attention to the field :)
Pretty similar process to polyurethane foam roofing, it also has an a and b side that mixes together to make foam pretty much sprays through the same kind of gun they used in the video.
As a materials engineer, I can say that this is the property of basically all rubbery vulcanised material. This coating is not as thin as it seems, and the ration of elasticity/rigidity tends more to rigid rubber, due to more tangling of polymer chain.

Is it possible to use this to create a car chassis ?
@@Niamato_inc no, a car chassis has to be stiff -- watch a Formula 1 car in slo-mo going over a curb at 100mph, the tyres are flinging about everywhere but the chassis (tub) remains straight. Now watch a road car trying the same thing, the body shell twists & the car usually ends up spinning off or rolling.
If only I could put that on my heart, Karen.
We're all constantly fighting and adapting to stay a step ahead of death in a hostile Universe. As far as our knowledge goes, we are the only conscious and capable organisms in this Universe filled with barren, sterile planets and there might be an asteroid heading towards us or an ecological catastrophe lurking to get the best of us as we speak. Perhaps the reason why we find ourselves so alone is because an unfathomable cosmic terror has devoured everyone else and our only option is to destroy it or be destroyed by it.
The only thing that is truly worth anything is life itself, the future generations to be precise, and it is our task to hold the torch of life until the end of time. So frankly, Karen being a bitch is a relatively minor inconvenience in the grand scheme of things.

If I may, this product was made as a protective coating/ liner. Which ended up being used as a truck bed liner. Small FYI, this product actually goes on smooth. Texturing is achieved by misting it in the air and allowing it to settle on a freshly applied coating.
Furthermore, by itself, it is not bulletproof, some type of kevlar or similar product is needed. Assuming mils are below .5-1" thickness.
It can be used in bomb blast mitigation, which can be achieved by coating both sides of a masonry wall.
There's enough Line-X on that melon to spray 48 truck beds -- with two coats each.

For one it is an object that could easily catch the blade. Second, it is not steady and stable by any means.

@erni muja
If you cut off enough they can do the tiny surgery like that and yes put everything together to hopefully get function back.
Mine was a bit of only the tip part of my thumb and the Dr said the blood vessels were too small to reattach, so now I just have a shorter thumb with crappy sensitivity on one hand.

Prabhu Khairnar linex your case
We can use this linex for army vests, inner ceramic coating, 2 layers of linex covered thick industrial strength kevlar, it could survive ak and other shots.
Typically we have up to 4 ceramic plates in our vests, made of boron carbide, they are rated for small arms fire. An AK model rifle and several other types of rifles fire 7.62 mm rounds, this is currently what the ceramic plates are rated for. I'd be curious to know if spraying the plates themselves in Line X could increase the amount of attacks the plate can take, as they can only take a few rounds before they stop working. Or you could drop it on the ground. *ceramic plates will break if dropped, even the smallest invisible hairline fracture can mean the difference between the plates doing their job, or your job coming to an end.*
"It's amazing the watermelon survived". It didn't though, did it? The coating survived. The watermelon was mushed on the inside.

I wonder if the gun ever gets clogged up?
Not sure about this process, but some mixing sprayers have short disposable reaction tips.
the switch must be right before the mixing, also at the moment of the spray it is in liquid spray and there is enough pression to empty the gun when you release the trigger
Cédric Raymond Ok see. The reaction was very fast i was just wondering if the barrier would have to be changed after every time however that make sense.
Yes it does. We have to clean it daily or else it will close shut. Also it's not uncommon for them to crap out suddenly lowering production.

Years ago the Mythbusters used a product like this and sprayed a concrete wall with it. They then placed a 1lbs charge of C4 all of 3 feet from the wall and exploded the charge. The control test without the bed liner blew a hole in the wall. The bed liner covered wall survived the blast easily.

How does that gun not get instantly clogged up with polyurea?
R.B. Has to dry.
R.B. the two components mix outside the gun in the airstream
Good question 🤔
The two components have separate nozzles within the front air nozzle(replaceable) the two nozzles are angled towards each other with the two streams colliding within the airflow, so while the two mix within the airflow of the gun they dont actually mix within the gun structure itself
It could be that the air continues for a fraction of a second after flow of the two chemicals is stopped from entering the mixing chamber. That final bit of air would flush the remains of the mixed chemicals before they begin to harden.
Cool video, but there is some bad Materials science in this video.
The process you describe at around 3:33 is polymerisation, whereas this reaction is far more likely to be a crosslinking. i.e. Rather than short chains getting longer, the curing process is pre-existing long chains getting interconnected at multiple positions.
This changes the mechanical properties of the mixture from a viscous liquid, where with enough force, the chains are able to slide over each-other, to something elastic, where a small amount of deformation is possible with the straightening of the tangled chains, but is limited by the interlocking groups preventing any sliding, essentially any elastic.
The straightening of the interlocked molecules is a very energy intensive process, which means that any deformation of the polymer absorbs a lot of energy, and then this energy is released again when the polymers re-curl (entering into a higher entropy state). This is what allows the ball to bounce, and not break.
So they finally managed to make those spray-on shoes from cloudy with a chance of meatballs
What makes a melonball bounce? (A melon ball bounce?) A melonball bounce! What makes a melonball bounce? The line-taut tension of Line-X!
I wonder if this stuff would be good for tires? I mean, where are they getting the resources from? is it from oil?
Nathan Trone the traction would be pretty poor. tyres wear down because they grip the road and that causes wear. the harder the tyres, the less wear but also the less grip. if this was able to withstand wear, it'd likely be unsafe to drive on
It would be really interesting if they tested inflating it. Although I seems like a really hard substance to mold.
Just put a coating on the inside of the tire, anti-puncture tires!

Molten Science hey I like your channel.
thanks +micheal lee :) and +fucduck u could be right on that lol
The coating is flexible so your car should still crumble like usual when you crash, as long as the coating isn't way too thick at least, I'm more interested in whether the coating can prevent denting and scratches.
Probably would not prevent denting, unless you have concave parts on the exterior, as the material doesn't seem very hard
That's pysical nonsense. kinetic energy isn't transferred to the people because it's more robust. We know from newtons first law that people inside the car would only get their own kinectic energy (1/2*m*v^2
m= the person v= speed of the car/speed of the person) because of Inertia. What you mean is that with a robust car the collision is more rapid than the collision without a robust car. (and can push the robust car back so it creates backwards velocity that increases damage (elastic shock)) That's why the people get more damage. But I also think not so robust cars will kill more people because of inner space deformation.

Is it wrong that now I wonder how you could Line-X a cat? They're already great at landing on their feet from high falls, imagine the heights that thing could survive!
Legion of Weirdos I mean, the watermelon broke quite a bit on the inside so the cat would still be so very very dead.
Cats can already survive terminal velocity. I don’t think they need the help.
Legion of Weirdos they would die from suffocation, but if not that after that intense of a fall all of their body contents would be mashed and mixed around
“The Felinex”
Haha... feLINE... LINEx... I’ll see myself out
Would be like a cat smoothie on the inside
it would be cool to see something like this in like a Web shooter
Michael Roberts Jr omg yes!....never thought of that .....you might be onto something here
Not if you want to scald an enemy in the process. But I can see where you are going with the idea.
Fighting bad guys with Linex. Just imagine you pulled out your Linex can instead of your Mace in the midst of combat.
This would be a horrifying weapon if say an army used it as a weapon, as it would do the following:
A: Stick to your enemies and quickly harden
B: Heat up very quickly and spray out hot
C: Immobilise them and make the unit essentially dead
D: 3rd degree burns would be the most common cause of gruesome death
E: the bodies would be difficult to dispose of humanely
So... if anyone reading this comment is a commander or general or something high up in the military of ANY country, please no.
CoacoBudder pretty sure that would be against somekind of rule of law.
