In this video I make a simple silicone from sodium silicate and ethanol. The sodium silicate was purchased for this video, but can be easily obtained by dissolving silicon dioxide in sodium hydroxide.

This is my first real foray into polymer chemistry, and as you chemists know, this is about the simplest possible example. I started so simply because I'm unsure whether there is any real interest in polymers, and I'm more than happy to try something more complex if there's any interest.
Just let me know!
