My brother and I decided to make an old school video back at the old backyard! we poured molten aluminum on some glass cubes and spheres to see what would happen, and to get some cool slow motion footage. We also melted glass and aluminum together to see if they would mix. Its unfortunate the glass sphere melted and fell over in the kiln, oh well, it was still interesting!

Your glass-reinforced aluminum was neat. I don't know if it actually makes it stronger or weakens it, but neat.

[@SuperTrunkspace]

If there were less silicon in it I'd be inclined to say yes. If the unmelted glass is in small enough particles it could act as a rigid filler, and the aluminum as a matrix that transmits force to the filler, so It'd essentially function like a composite. If he fully melted the mixture, silicon in aluminum functions much the same as carbon in iron- it allows hardenability and depending on the microstructure it can get very hard. 4000 series alloys can have upwards of 10-12% silicon and many have strengths comparable to mild steel but at roughly 1/3 the weight.

The heat from even a drop of that molten aluminum in the wrong spot could’ve set it off instantly. Hilarious that he showed it in the video, but please be responsible with your electrical equipment!

Sidenote, that was an excellent display of the difference between viscosity and density of the 2 materials. The aluminium was very "watery" due to the relative extreme temperature, it takes a lot more to melt glass than aluminium. I don't remember the specific heat capacity of the two materials and I am too lazy to go look it up in my textbook.

Dude I love watching your videos. Can I buy you a pair of Carhartt pants it always scares me when you do this stuff in shorts.

We have a Christmas ornament at home that our a glass sphere that has been dunked in water to make those exact cracks. Then the artist melted the surface and tempered it just enough to make it safe and durable. Super cool.

[@stevieisinband5340]

Him: “I’m wearing glasses just in case it cracks” My chemistry teacher: “We need to wear goggles because we’re heating water.”

[@jckmohr5912]

Your chemistry teacher is responsible for the actions of a class of 16 year olds. I don't blame them.

[@mr.rabbit5642]

@@jckmohr5912 still accurate tho xD

[@zionnemakoma1398]

Well, the teacher wants to get the class into the habit of safety gear

[@jackescut8523]

That's because adults get lazy about PPE. 2020 is setting a great example for PPE burnout.

“Sorry for lighting the yard on fire, Mom!” My mom would freak out if I did that.

[@eschelar]

As she should. Seriously, if you're doing anything like this, anyone should freak out at you. This is beyond awful.

[@eschelar]

@@prydereid8191 Because I don't think they should pour molten metal onto something that is prone to exploding into shards when encountering strong, localized changes in temperature, which would also be superheated from the transfer of thermal energy into the glass... without any sort of protection? I'm not sure what my children are gonna be either, but I would hope they will be able to survive their first experiment without becoming injured or disfigured or worse.
