Some of our Year 7 scientists used chromatography to investigate how felt pens are made up of many different coloured dyes.
Since the different constituents of the colour mixture move at different speeds through the chromatography paper the dyes can be separated.
Surprisingly some colours were made up of at least four others, giving an insight into how the dyes for the pens were manufactured.
