This product is polycaprolactone, a type of thermoplastic sold under names like Polymorph, InstaMorph, and Worbla. This brand worked just as well as more expensive name brands that I’ve tried.Polycaprolactone is a solid at room temperature, but transitions to a clear, gel-like substance at around 60C/140F, a temperature easy to achieve with boiling water or a heat gun. While it will not become a pourable liquid, the soft gel it forms can be molded into both simple and complex shapes. It turns opaque again as it cools and hardens. Polycaprolactone will not stick to silicone or nitrile, meaning you can use silicone containers to melt or mold it and nitrile gloves to keep you finger prints off it.It can be used for crafting costumes or cosplay props, or used around the house, and is a simpler to use and non-toxic alternative to 3D printing or resins. It can be re-heated and re-shaped repeatedly, so instead of tossing it you can just re-shape it. Do note that it’s original form, little pellets, is designed to maximize surface area and promote rapid phase transition. Once you’ve formed it into a larger or more solid shape you will find melting it will take much longer, so you may prefer to cut it into smaller pieces first.Polycaprolactone is fairly environmentally friendly, as plastics go, and not only because it can be reused so many times. It can be composted in industrial facilities (theoretically it should break down in a home compost system as well, but I can’t speak to that personally) or put in the trash as it will break down in landfills.

This polymorph is easy to store and access in its nice wide mouth container. I bought this to make some amendments to household items so my disabled (double amputee) family member can live as independently as possible. The polymorph is really easy to use..just heat in hot water, wait for it to get to the right consistency and clear, then mold into shape. It air dries (no special steps required) and keeps its shape once it has completely cooled. You also emerge the piece in cold water to harden it faster. Once cool and set it’s rigid. It stuck to my nail polish covered fingernails a little while it was in pliable mode, however any bit that was stuck came right off once it hardened. This would be fun to use for less somber reasons too. I can totally see this being used to make cosplay items, special effects prosthetics, jewelry, and toys. Kids would have a lot of fun with this, just supervise them as it can be hot when first molding it. This is a great product with endless possibilities for use. It seems like a good value, as you get 1lb. worth of material.

This is an incredible product! I've used it for household repairs, RC car fixes, and even to create custom accessories for my kids' toys so my kids have fun. It works exactly as expected, very easy to use, is good value for the money, holds up strong with durability, and has quickly become one of my go-to tools. Highly recommend!

I love this stuff. This is easy to use, just pour some into warmer water and it will mold together. You can work with it in your hands to mold it how you want. It will harden to a hard plastic overtime. Nice stuff to have around for DIY projects. Functions as well as other's I've had.

These beads are super handy for quick repairs and creative projects. They mold easily when warm and harden into a strong hold. A fun and useful item to keep around for DIY fixes.
