Blue dye doesnt affect yields!

Hey

When makin methylamine.hcl you can do this

Clean the blue paraformaldehyde with 3-5gallons of H2O and a few alcohol soaks. This will leave the paraformaldhyde free of most of the dye (still light blue) but usable in the synth.

Also instead of buyin the good ole ammonium chloride you can make a conc. sol of NH4Cl from conc. ammonia solution and muriatic acid. This will leave a sol which some NH4Cl precipitates and the rest is a saturated sol (35g/100ml H2O) at room temp. This can be directly pluged into the brighstar synth!!

The methylamine.hcl will be slighty blue but in the Osmium al/hg it doesnt get in the final product and the yields are high~!

noj:
Is the dye from an OTC source of paraformaldehyde? And couldn't all these posts about your success have been in the same thread?  :P
there's a big difference between criticizing your government and criticizing your country

hCiLdOdUeDn:
Yes, there is an OTC source of paraformaldehyde which contains a blue dye.

sorry about the multiple threads! :-[

Once you try it compared to the HCHO/NH4Cl, you won't go back.  ;)

Why, what is the difference?
