For the surname, see Sugrue. Sugru is the brand name for a patented,[1] multi-purpose, non-slumping variant of silicone that resembles modeling clay. It is malleable when removed from its airtight and moisture-proof packaging, retains its plasticity for thirty minutes,[2] is self-adhesive to aluminium and ABS plastic[1] and possibly other plastics and materials, and self-cures at room temperature after approximately 24 hours. After curing, Sugru retains a 'soft touch' or slightly flexible, grippy surface and is waterproof and dishwasher-safe.[3] Its "service temperature range" is defined between -60 and 180 degrees celsius, and it's thermally insulating[1] Testing has shown Sugru not to be resistant to solvents.[4] The product has a shelf life of six months.[5] The name Sugru derives from the Irish language word "sugradh" for "play".[6] Contents 1 History 2 Chemical compound 3 See also 4 References 5 External links History This section is written like an advertisement. Please help rewrite this section from a neutral point of view. (January 2011) Sugru was developed by Jane Ní Dhulchaointigh from Kilkenny, Ireland.[6] Previously a sculptor, and now based in London, UK, Ní Dhulchaointigh studied product design as a post-graduate research student at the Royal College of Art[6] where she conceived the idea for the substance in 2003.[7] "I was making things with silicone sealants and sawdust, and started using the leftovers around the house,” she says at her east London base. I modified a knife handle to make it more comfortable. My boyfriend said, 'Imagine if everyone could do that -- like with stiff jam-jar lids.' It was a great idea."[7] After receiving business grants,[8] Ní Dhulchaointigh worked with retired scientists from Dow Corning[9] and a silicone expert over a seven year period[7] at the materials department at Queen Mary, University of London[7] to develop a silcone elastomer that was moldable, self-adhesive and self-curing, enabling people "to easily and affordably repair, improve or customise things they already own."[9] Chemical compound Sugru is made of chemical compound with trade name Formerol.[1] The company claims its formulation can be varied to offer different levels of consistency, plasticity, softness, resiliency, surface adhesion, modulus and abrasion resistance, setting time, density, and ability to float[citation needed]. The company claims that Formerol is classified under EU Health & Safety regulations as "not dangerous",[10] but it may cause an allergic reaction.[11] It is manufactured by London-based Formformform Ltd.
