  1. Has it got warm? I think you have to keep it cool. PS I think you will have some ammonium nitrate in there as well. PPS give this a read. http://encarta.msn.com/encyclopedia_761563439/Tin.html
  2. PS where did you get your indium from?
  3. lol. I know the metal with out even looking at the link, (I've been on that site lots). I may try this one day (when I get some nitric acid). Keep us informed, If you had some Tin oxide (from making solar panels) add some carbon etc. Shame I've got none, lol.
  4. Its ncie to have color code, having fun picking up the butane gas bottle to put out a fire, muhahahaha
  5. mmm I think I'm thinking about tin(II) chloride. But I'm sure you can get the lead out using this method. My chem skills are poor, http://jchemed.chem.wisc.edu/JCESoft/CCA/CCA1/R1MAIN/CD1R1630.HTM But then how to turn the tin back. I'll think about this, Fun fun
  6. 2sec, I'm sure if you use nitric acid then you can use electrolysis to get it. I think!!!!
  7. WMD's if the you go to iraq, sorry couldnt help my self. Anywy, the water will expand slowly, but it remains water for longer. Due to the pressure.
  8. yeah soft glass will melt about 900c, well melt isnt the right word, lol. as it a not a solid. I was thinking aout making my self a clay pot for it. So you didnt get a headache? (I work with glass as a side hobby, )
  9. o right, must of been something else init, Well it got rid of the water any way,
  10. Just to add info for anyone outside readin this. Meth/ethanol spirts. distill it to remove that purple colour. Add the copper sulphate (thats had the water removed) Then most of this will sink to the bottom and turn more blue from white. Also some of the denaturing additives (grubbles....) will turn brown'ish. Still again and its should be done, add a little more copper sulphate and it should just sink and not change the colour of the liquid. collect you copper sulphate and dry for another day. Just wanted to add some closure to this thread,
  11. aha thank YT. No I didnt let it dry. I didnt think the water would go from the phos acid. Yeah I dont thin you would of reach the 1800c with a propane burner. I think is working the same way as someone else came up with. carbon (poly type) with phos acid put in a microwave, lol. I'll set up my make shift fume hood. Yeah your phos acid will be much more pure then mine from a quick think. Thanks for the inof, I'll mull it around in my head for a bit, So you didnt get any misty smoke coming off? Headache in the making.
  12. YTI may be wrong but from what Ive been reading you get phosphine as well as a misty gas. What did you do with yourd, burn it? Also you must of had this up to a very high temp, 1800c range If I thinking right. I havent found anyway of doing it using phos acid apart from using lead but this isnt very good, so they say. I've read alot of forums and most people find it much harde then just adding phos acid and carbon and heating. Strange, you there YT?
  13. hummm. I think I've figured it out. phos acid + carbon heat it till about 130c (I think this is the temp) and what comes of will be E-phos and others co2 etc. this needs to collected with out contact with air. So using phos acid thats is of high concentration or water work. I'm getting there, Its good fun trying to unlock the puzzle.
  14. Doesnt heating phos acid to remove the water make pyrophosphoric acid metphos acid? how would I get it back to phos oxide? That is what I'm aiming for isnt it?
  15. I've got about 1litre of phosphoric acid from my hydroponic growing etc. Yeah as far as I know I'll have to boil the water out of it to make the H3PO4 into the oxide, but thats changing it alot. I've got 85% phos acid. Would it require more heat than ironoxide alu mix? I've manage to make that work just using ironoxide powder and alu foil chopped into bits. I'v got a hot head which is used for glass working. uses mapp gas and it got the alu white hot easy, but if its hotter than that in a test tube then that even for pyrex is hot. Not that it would bother the pyrex but thats a hell of alot of heat. come'on YT be a sport, Pm me, please.......
  16. So (just from a quick read and think) you "dry the phos acid to turn it back to "Phosphorus pentoxide, P2O5 (P4O10)" add carbon and you're done? what temp does this have to be at?
  17. aha Thats better, I had it in my head that it was (H)nP not H3PO4. I was thinking as he said charcoal works as well, I thought the carbon was being turned into hydro carbons, I was like wth. My chem isnt that good, But I'm learning,
  18. I know this isnt something YT would want to answer, but after you made the phos acid you added carbon. How did you get from this to phos? I'd go with the light, seems safer to me, I wouldnt want to heat it, lol.
  19. I know this is digging up an old thread, but more info the better, couldnt you have put the white phos under water then leave sunlight to change it to red phos? that's got to be safer than heating it to 250c or whats ever it needs, lol. Btw I came across this thread via google, I wasnt looking at phos glowing.
  20. For nitric acid UK http://www.growell.co.uk/p/1221/Nitric_Acid_pH_Down.html Just an idea.
  21. Just to let you know the copper sulphate worked a treat. I'm sure I got it over 99% ethanol.
  22. Thanks guys, I've already heated the copper sulphate, I did it first in the microwave but that got a bit too hot, so I got my blowtourch out, worked a treat. Yeah the gel thing I know it will work up'til a point but I'm not sure if it would work over the 95%. If it did them the soil that it is in would be dry all time right? Hope that make sence. Yeah I stilled it after using the copper~ Ps I dont think there is any need to powder it as the crystal break down to powder when the water is removed. It has the added bonus of sowing you the colour so you know if it requires more salt.
  23. I've been reading somethine about using copper sulphate, which I've got but It seems it will take weeks.
  24. It didnt work, Now I've tried it I can guess why it didnt work. if these gels have to keep the soil wet (to a point) then they cant take up all the water in the ethanol. I'm trying plaster now as I couldnt find any calcium oxide at B&Q I've got some CaCl12 I was thinking what would happen if I put a open bottle of ethanol in a container (air tight) with CaCl12 around it. would this draw the water out of the ethanol? I best this would take along time tho. Any ideas, any other uses for the gel? fun stuff tho,
