This process is all thanks to brilliant chemist Tryggvi Emilsson. He captured the first snowflake in 1979 using superglue! The small molecules in superglue are called cyanoacrylate monomers that penetrate and interlock with the microscopic forms of anything they touch. The glue hardens when the monomers link together, or polymerize, head-to-tail into long chains called polymers. This process is triggered by any minute trace of water or water vapor.

It’s God

@@gamer_johnvideos7062don’t force religion please 😊❤

You don't. It's fake as a 3dollar bill. That's why the process isn't shown. The weight of the resin itself would smash the flake

@@goldknox9629​​⁠it might be fake but I think there’s a plausible way it could be done. Cyanoacrylate glues stay pretty nonviscous when cold and can cure instantly with a hardener. Then encase that in resin.

@@goldknox9629 pity tho, the concept is cool

Invented in the 70s. . Plenty of research and info available. . Give it a google.💛

​@@ArtistryExplorationit's definitely BS but it's a nice necklace

@@justdoinmythingi’m skeptical as all hell but i do know this is possible if you have a certain polymer coating the ice crystals before they melt. science is crazy!

@@justdoinmything google is free. . Science and history are rad.💛💛

Thank you! 20mm about an inch💛💛

Google is rad . . And free. .

I am a huge fan of Wilson Bentley!! 💛💛💛💛

The snowflake is preserved before setting on microscope slides. . Then harvest from them glass magnified and set. . Science is pretty neat. . Icelandic scientist came up with the process late 70s. . . Then a Japanese physicist grew one on a rabbit hair. . Knowledge is power friend.

I show the whole process in my videos. . I’m guessing you didn’t check those out either. . .

I just love your work And I had the honor of actually watching you make something😂 And show me the process.❤

It’s so incredible how intricate for size!!!

Thank you so much for checking it out! The process and history is truly remarkable.💛💛

Nature is absolutely incredible!!

These are glass magnified from the original specimen. . So glad you are detail oriented.💛

You obviously have no idea about science and polymerization. . Thanks tho.💛

Science is awesome friend. .google is wild!💛

Absolutely. . Way

@@ArtistryExploration HOW- (Btw this isn’t hate I’m just shocked-)

Stop watching my videos. . .

It is such a beautiful art!!!!! I am constantly captivated by the designs.

Google it my friend. . Absolutely is.💛

A simple Google isn't enough for me. I need actual sites and names of the ones how discovered that you could preserve a snowflake. one of the most fragile things on earth. cuz I want to meet them.

@@cody5425 I have all that info in the bio on my page. Thanks!💛

Nevermind I found it and .Jesus Christ we rilly doing everything with science . And it's honestly a cool process and as someone who can do this at a actual lab I'm going to

@@cody5425 I’ve been doing it for several years. . No lab. . It’s a beautiful art!! Happy hunting!!💛

Thank you!!

Google is gold friend!💛 You can also check out our page. It is real chemical reaction polymerization. . Science is cool!

@@ArtistryExploration a natural snowflake will just melt. that may be a real snowflake, but it definitely ain't a natural one.

What ever you need to tell yourself friend. .

Chemical reaction! Polymerization I have several videos detailing the process.💛💛

@@ArtistryExploration thanks for explaining, I didn't see the vids lol

Thank you!!!

❤❤❤

You can check out the entire process on our page. It’s a chemical reaction process called polymerization. .

How come it didn't melt?
