Don't Burst My Bottle!

CSEF · 2023 Materials Science Honorable_mention Award

Peralta Prema · 6

Overview

Americans alone put more than 45 billion plastic water bottles into landfills every year. Edible water bottles could help reduce that number, but they are not very durable. So I wanted to find out: How can you create the most durable edible water bottle? In this project, I measured this by finding how much weight it takes to burst each edible water sphere. The sphere that can withstand the most weight will be the most durable one.
