Yesterday in science class Mr. Kirste informed us about a challenge from the Kleenex company. The challenge is to come up with an experiment that can be run, and that tests things like the strength or absorbency of a Kleenex. This is a really good chance for our school because only ten schools in the country were chosen to be part of it. I forget exactly what you win if your experiment idea is chosen, but it is a lot of money, plus the company pays for all the materials needed for the experiment. I think I have a pretty good idea, and I am excited to see what my teacher and group think.
The experiment that I thought of tests the absorbency of Kleenex tissues. The materials needed are some type of a mechanical blower, some type of goop, and three different brands of tissues, one being Kleenex. The experiment will be the blower blowing goop into the Kleenex, and then timing how long it takes for it to break. Then I would so this on the other tissue brands. The goal would be to find out how Kleenex brand tissues compare to other brands. I think this would be a good experiment.
