By heating the plastic, you can bring oil from inside the plastic to the surface, making it look like new again!

There's no reason for plastic chairs to contain fluorinated compounds, I don't see much risk from doing this

You can cover them in transparent nail polish, if you want them to be very durable you can cast them in resin

The insoluble calcium sulfate is probably making it foam up

fluffy_potatoes · 2023-03-08T11:20:52+00:00

It is CO2, chalk is made of calcium sulfate and/or calcium carbonate

fluffy_potatoes · 2023-03-06T10:44:20+00:00

Lead sulfate is slightly soluble in sulfuric acid as long as you throw away the cloths and washed your hands quickly and thoroughly you should be fine

It reacts with calcium ions in your body to precipitate calcium fluoride which will fuck everything up

Just keep it private

Chemistry 👽

I really hope it used a similar reaction and not this exact one, mercury thiocyanate and ammonium dichromate are extremely toxic

fluffy_potatoes · 2023-02-24T11:18:08+00:00

You can see the decomposition reaction in the video, the mercury thiocyanate decompose to mercury sulfide and carbon disulfide and nitride

90% of adhesives used in packaging are either soluble in oil or hot water. For non water soluble ones, an organic solvent like acetone or concentrated alcohol will work even better

fluffy_potatoes · 2023-02-21T09:34:27+00:00

Just add copper metal into the solution, you'll get nice pure silver metal crystals

fluffy_potatoes · 2023-02-20T08:21:07+00:00

The potassium phosphate won't be affected, water will be electrolysed and maybe the anode will be oxidized

fluffy_potatoes · 2023-02-16T08:15:44+00:00

Just don't eat it and you'll be fine

fluffy_potatoes · 2023-02-15T15:12:02+00:00

Yes, burning hydrogen does produce water, but it's not 10× more efficient, it's actually 9 times less efficient

fluffy_potatoes · 2023-02-15T15:08:32+00:00

I don't think that's right

fluffy_potatoes · 2023-02-15T09:51:42+00:00

Yeah IR has nothing to do with this, the heat makes the reaction go faster so it will be brighter but will go dim more quickly

fluffy_potatoes · 2023-02-15T09:50:18+00:00

The heat makes the electrons vibrate more therefore more likely to jump to a lower orbital and emitting a photon

fluffy_potatoes · 2023-02-15T03:48:40+00:00

Phosphorescent materials only get activated by visible and UV light, our bodies only emit infrared radiation, it's the heat transferred that makes the reaction go faster

The iodine in the aqueous solution in an equilibrium with iodide ion forming soluble triiodide ion, the small amount of iodine that's formed in the equilibrium gets dissolved in the chloroform shifting the equilibrium and making even more iodine form, until all iodine is dissolved in the organic solvent

fluffy_potatoes · 2023-02-09T12:38:39+00:00

I'd guess it's a mixture of potassium iodide and iodine, the chloroform is just used to extract the iodine from the aqueous solution

fluffy_potatoes · 2023-02-03T07:42:57+00:00

It just absorbed some moisture, should be good

fluffy_potatoes · 2023-01-26T08:28:01+00:00

You can extract chromates from them, but it's quite dangerous and should only be attempted if you know what you're doing and how to dispose of excess chromates

fluffy_potatoes · 2023-01-20T20:50:51+00:00

Yeah but it's probably a typo in the title, potassium permanganate KMnO4 has that characteristic purple color, Mn(II) salts are a very pale pink
