Educational Materials
A comprehensive catalog of education materials, instruments, and tools available through Avantor allows users to more effectively teach subjects of biology, physics, language arts, chemistry, earth science, forensics, math, and environmental studies. Many interdisciplinary kits allow students to match skills across a variety of subjects in order to better absorb key concepts and procedures. Educational materials are designed to be durable and user-friendly for accessibility with users of all levels.
K’NEX Education Intro to Simple Machines: Wheels/Axles & Inclined Planes
Investigate and experiment with 7 functioning Wheel & Axle and Inclined Plane models designed to demonstrate science and technology concepts.
Students can determine, through investigation, if the machine multiplies the force it applies to the resistance (load), if the machine changes the direction of the force they apply, and more.

Solar Bottle Boats Kit
Power three different solar vehicles — a solar speed boat, an air boat, and a surface submarine — using only the power of the sun. Build three vessels out of your recycled plastic beverage bottles then power them with the sun using the included 1/2 watt, waterproof solar panel. You can build a solar speed boat, an air boat, and a surface submarine. No batteries required.

The Stirling Design External Combustion Engine
Demonstrate the Stirling Design External Combustion Engine with our 18×11 cm working model. The Stirling engine currently is being re-examined as a practical source of power because of its adaptability to almost any fuel. First produced in the 1800’s as a non-electric fan and an automatic hot air water pump, the engine soon became obsolete due to its lack of sufficient power when compared to the newly developed combustion engine. Any fuel can be used with our model, but denatured alcohol is suggested for clean operation.
