Is Dawn safe for school science experiments?
Yes, for simple studies and experiments only with adult supervision provided at all times. Our consumers say they have used Dawn to study the surfactants it contains that cause solids, like ground pepper, to scatter on its surface. While you can safely mix dish soap with household food ingredients and water, do not mix Dawn products with other household cleaning products or abrasive chemicals like bleach. For more information about our dish soap ingredients and safety considerations, see our Material Safety Data Sheets.
