Mini Science Kit – Characteristics of Materials Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Mini Science Kit – Characteristics of Materials (Product Code: SLE/CH/156) helps pupils discover why everyday things are made from the materials they are. Through its activities children examine what their clothes are made of, test how high a ball bounces, compare hard-wearing materials and the strongest fabric, measure how absorbent different papers are and learn which materials are flammable. Produced by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, it is a hands-on science kit for primary school and middle-school lessons on materials and their properties.

Key Details

Activities performed with this kit:

• What are our clothes made of?
• What affects how high a ball bounces?
• Characteristics
• Hard wearing materials
• Strongest fabric
• Absorbency of different papers
• Flammable materials

Typical Use

Each activity asks pupils to compare several materials under the same conditions, so the kit is a natural way to teach fair testing. Children might sort clothing samples by what they are made of, drop a ball from a fixed height onto different surfaces and record the rebound, rub materials to see which wear first, load strips of fabric to find the strongest, and time how quickly different papers soak up water. Recording results in a table and ranking the materials helps pupils link each property to a real use – why a raincoat, a towel or a pair of jeans is made the way it is.

The flammable-materials activity should be carried out by the teacher as a demonstration, with a heat-proof surface, water nearby and pupils at a safe distance. For the other tests, use the same sample size each time and repeat measurements to spot odd results. As a compact science experiment kit, it slots into a materials unit over several lessons without needing a full laboratory.

Manufacturer

The kit comes from Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, a science equipment maker in Ambala, Haryana, known to schools by its trading name ScienceLab. Our company profile describes what we make and how we work with institutions.

• Meter Stick, White — a fixed scale for reading ball-bounce heights
• Force Meter/Spring Balance — puts a number on the pull a fabric strip withstands
• Filter Paper — an extra paper type for the absorbency comparison
• Mini Science Kit – Solids and Liquids — continues the materials theme with states of matter

Frequently Asked Questions

What can pupils investigate with this kit?
Clothing materials, what affects ball bounce, general characteristics of materials, hard-wearing materials, the strongest fabric, absorbency of papers and flammable materials.

Is the flammable-materials activity safe for a class?
It should be run as a teacher demonstration under your school’s safety rules, not as a pupil activity. Keep a heat-proof mat and water at hand.

Are fabric and paper samples part of the kit?
The detailed contents are not listed here. Please ask us through the contact page for the current packing list before you order.

How do we make the bounce test fair?
Drop the same ball from the same height each time, change only the surface, and read the rebound against a fixed vertical scale. Repeat each drop and take the typical value.

What should we include in a quotation request?
Give the number of kits, your school name and delivery address, and any extra items such as magnifiers or metre sticks you want packed with them.

Can you deliver to schools abroad?
Yes. We supply institutions in India and international markets; let us know the destination so we can confirm shipping.
