Alright all you happy bees!!!!
I'm BACK!!
I have taken a week out of town, and I am getting back to work now!!!!
I would like to thank you all greatfully for all the repplies, support and concern - NOT TO MENTION KNOWLEDGE!
I feel like jumping out of my skin when I read posts comming from you guys!
I have made, like I stated, quite a bit of LSA. I will now do the next step several times, too. I DO have one thing I didn't mention. Just before I took a break, I dried a certain ammount of LSA cause I thought I would work on it right away. Anyways, I heated it up to 130C and vacuumed its atmosphere. after 3 hours it became grey.
This is the first time this ever happens.
I was worried to have burned out some of it ( which was one of the reasons I decided to rest) but when I cabe back, there it was! nice and white again!! Weird? maybe the LSA hydrate is white, and monohydrate grey. Does this make any sense?
well, I will try to work on it grey from now on. Maybe it improves the yiels. If it does not work, I won't heat it so much anymore.
And I WILL come back with pics soon, I promise to get the next step in detail. Then I will pic the hydrolysis of my cristine.
Later, guys!!! Don't forget to write!
