Information

1) What Is A Soap Bubble ?

A Soap Bubble Is Soap Film Filled With Air Or Gas.

The Surface Is A Thin Sheet Of Water Sandwiched Between Two Layers Of Soap Molecules.

One End Of Each Soap Molecule Is Attracted To Water. The Other End Wants To Avoid Water.

The Bubble Tends To Be A Sphere Because It Provides The Minimal Surface Area Needed To Enclose A Given Volume.

The Size Reduces Until The Force Of The Surface Equals The Force Of The Air Pressure Within.

Bubbles Tend To Burst After A Few Seconds.

2) How The Colors Of A Soap Bubble Are Formed ?

The Iridescence (the Rainbow Colors) On A Soap Bubble Arise From Light Wave Interference Between The Rays Reflecting On The Outer Surface Of The Bubble And The Rays Reflecting On The Inner Surface Of The Bubble.

The Colors Of A Soap Film Provide A Precise Measurement Of The Film's Thickness.

3) The Shows

Bubbles Are Used In Artistic Performances.

Some Artists Create Giant Bubbles Or Tubes, Envelop Objects Or Humans, Create Bubbles Forming Cubes, Tetrahedra And Other Forms, Handled The Bubbles With Bare Hands, Filled Them With Smoke, Vapor Or Helium, Flammable Gas Such As Natural Gas And Then Ignited Them, Combined With Lightings Of Laser Lights Or Flames.

4) Bubble Wands

Bubble Wands Are Very Common Toys In Children, Often Distributed During The Festivities.

A Bubble Wand Presents The Shape Of A Stick And Has A Circular Hole Or Another Shape At One End. By Soaking The Baguette In A Soapy Solution, A Soap Film Forms Inside The Hole Of The Baguette.

The Size Of The Bubbles Depends On The Diameter Of The Hole.

The Bubbles Are Formed By Blowing, Generally Coming Out In Large Numbers.

Retailers Sell Hundreds Of Millions Of Bottles Annually.

8) Which Soapy Composition Gives Large Bubbles ?

The Longevity Of A Soap Bubble Is Limited By The Ease Of Rupture Of The Very Thin Layer Of Water Which Constitutes Its Surface.

The Water Falls Down Can Be Slowed Down By Increasing The Water Viscosity, For Instance By Adding Glycerol.

Glycerol Is A Hygroscopic Medium: It Attracts The Water Present In The Air, Thus Compensating For The Loss Of Water.

A Solution Gave The Longest Lasting Results: 85.9% Water, 10% Glycerol, 4% Washing-up Liquid, 0.1% Guar Gum.

To Get 100 Ml, Mix In Order: 25 Ml Of Distilled Water Or Very Little Mineralized Water. 5 Grams Of Sugar Or One To Two Teaspoons Of Icing Sugar. 20 Ml Of Dishes. 10 Ml Of Glycerine. 40 Ml Of Distilled Water Added At The End To Obtain A Better Mixture And Less Foam.

An Interesting Alternative To Glycerin Is Cornstarch.

The Evaporation Can Be Slowed Down By Blowing Bubbles In A Wet Atmosphere, Or By Adding Some Sugar To The Water.

The More The Air Is Wet, The Larger The Bubbles And Will Have A Long Lifespan. This Is Why The Best Moments Are At Dawn And Near A River, A Pond Or A Forest.

9) Giant Bubbles

Giant Bubbles Require A Tri-string Wands: A Triangle Of String Or Cord Dangled Between Two Stick-handles.

Dip The String Into A Bubble Mixture, And Lift Out With The Sticks Held Together, Then Raise The Chopsticks And Spread Them .

The Wind Will Blown Huge Bubbles.

The Giant Bubbles Can Reach A Meter And More.

10) The Garland

A Garland Wand Is A Type Of Bubble Wand Comprising Two Handles, A String With A Series Of Small Looplets That Produce Multiple Small Bubbles From A Single Dip.

11) The Frozen Bubbles

A Bubble Freeze Like All Water.
