The material was invented by a Spanish designer, Manel Torres and Paul Lukham, a professor of particle technology at Londons Imperial College.That spray contains short fibers and polymers, mixed with a solvent that helps turn the fabric to a liquid form. As it dries, the fibers stick together creating a fabric that can be peeled off easily. The spray on clothing is pretty flexible and can be made with any fabric - cotton, wool, acrylic and even linen and manufactured in any color you want. The density of the clothing can be made thicker by spraying on extra layers, that means that it can be use for any weather you are preparing for.While the designer will be showing his fun fabric at the upcoming Science in Style Fashion Show, it is not ready to hit the typical market yet for some reasons. The first difficulty is the smell of the solvent, which is very strong and remain around the clothing. Also, there is the problem of the snugness of the clothing created, which may not appeal to a lot of people.
My Opinion
I think that spray on fashon is really cool because it looks like you are spraying something put the it turnes into fabric:) I think that it is bad that when you make a shirt for example out ouf that spray the smell will stay on the shirt. It is cool because you can actully have tons of clothing without actually bying the cloths.

States of Matter
State of Matter | Mass | Shape | Volume | Heating | Compressibility | Examples |
Gas | Has a definite mass | An Indefinite shape | Indefinite volume too | On heating it expands real large | Easily Compressible | Oxygen |
Liquid | Has a definite mass | Has an Indefinite shape | An definite volume too | On heating it expands slightly | Low compressibility | Water |
Solid | Has a definite mass | A definite shape | Definite volume too | On heating it expands real low | Some Compressibility | Rock |
From that tabel I saw some patterns. One of them were that all of the states had a definite mass. All of them were compressible and that all of them expanded diferently when youput it on heat!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

I love science because...
I love science because it is fun and exiting. It is exiting because when you do an experiment you never know if something is going to explode. There are many things that you can learn about in science, fun tings for shure. I also like science because if you predict something wrong it wont matter because in science you sometimes learn through mistakes. If you ask me, the funest thing in science is experimenting with materials we dont know.
What is matter
Matter is anything that has mass. All objects are made of matter. Air, water, a brick,everything around you. Matter is anything made of atoms and molecules. Matter is anything that has a mass. Matter is also related to light. Even though matter can be found all over the place, you usually find it in just a few forms.There are five states of matter, liquid, solid,gas, plasma and Bose-Einstein condensates.

What I know about Matter
Matter is everything and everything around us.
I know that there are three states of matter, solids, liquids, and gas. When solid melts it will turn into liquid, when liquid is put on high heat it will vanish which means it will turn into gas, and then all over again.
The air that we breath is mad out of oxygen and water.
I know that there are three states of matter, solids, liquids, and gas. When solid melts it will turn into liquid, when liquid is put on high heat it will vanish which means it will turn into gas, and then all over again.
Matter are also many different materials, like wood, bricks and many other different materials.
