Liquid inside a Magna Doodle

[CheeseDonkey]

I’ve tried Googling this but had no luck. Inside each cell of a Magna Doodle, there is a thick white liquid and iron filings. Anyone know what the liquid is actually made of?

From How Stuff Works:

The liquid is water, glycol or organic solvent/oil-based, and has particulate thickeners: waxes - olefinic polymer, olefinic copolymer, wax fatty acid derivatives - fatty acid amide, dextrin fatty acid ester metal soap

I hope you didn’t drink it?

You’re my hero.

What in the world did you google?!? Googling the phrase “liquid inside a magna doodle” (your OP’s title) has the top three answers as links to How Stuff Works. Heck, just googling “magna doodle” comes up with the HSW page as the fifth result.

Guess I have to be somebody else’s hero today.

I saw the Magna Doodle How Stuff Works page, but I didn’t get past the first page in the article.

I saw the Magna Doodle How Stuff Works page, but I didn’t get past the first page in the article.

So your OP should have been:

Could somebody read the rest of this article for me?

I jest. I’ve missed the key point in articles that were right in the first line.

I have even linked to said article in my OP.
