Lab Notes - Alternative glassware protection for sodium production - August 31st 2018

Final high resolution version with equations.

Patreon Preview - Alternative glassware protection methods

Another preview for your consideration. I've solved the Drying/Jumpstart problem. The only thing left now is to find an alternative tertiary alcohol that doesn't take 5 steps to make.

Final High Resolution Version.

Patreon Preview - Lab notes on successful glassware protection

Let me know what you think.

We're very close to being done, it's just a matter of finding a way to make the initial charge of sodium. And this is entirely optional if you're willing to sacrifice a flask or go with the thermochemical dioxane method.

Patreon preview - Make hydrobromic acid revisited (2018)

Pretty much done. let me know if there are any errors, boring parts, or parts you think i should cover.

Not sure if i'll post it this month or next month, we'll see.

Make Dimethyl Dioxane

Final Version

Patreon preview - Make Dimethyl Dioxane

Very rough cut of the upcoming video on making dimethyl dioxane. I'm still adding in equations and graphics but you should get the idea. 

Let me know if there are any additions/improvements you'd like to see.

Let me know your thoughts and opinions and if there there is anything i need to address. My apologies for a slow month. 


I'll post this later today if it's acceptable.

Make Sodium Silicate from Cat Litter and Drain Opener

Final Version

Patreon Preview - Sodium silicate

VERY simple video. 

(this actually leads into much more complex projects like making the catalysts for making fuels)

Still have to add equations and such. Let me know if there are any questions i should address or additional info to round it out.

Progress Report: Succesful Sodium Production with Inexpensive Chemicals and Continuing Optimizations

Final High Resolution Version

Patreon Preview - Sodium progress report

I'm trying out this new "progress report" format. I think i like it much better than just showing straight failures. In this case, even boring failures can be used for videos if i put them together with test experiments and discuss how they inform and direct future experiments. Let me know if you like it.

Make Copper Formate (for Making Copper Conductive Ink)

Final version. 

I put in the sodium carbonate type as suggested earlier. 

View Post

Patreon Preview - Make Copper Formate

A simple video with simple chemistry this time. I'm trying to have a mix of super complicated stuff (like making sodium) with straightforward stuff so everyone can have a video they'll enjoy.


Anyway, this video is pretty self-explanatory. Making copper formate with the eventual objective of making copper conductive ink. Let me know if there are any errors or suggestions.

Progress Report: Theory Test for Alcohol Catalyzed Magnesium Reduction of Sodium (Success!)

Final Version

View Post

Patreon preview - Progress report: Sodium theory test (success!)

Preview of an upcoming progress report.

Normally i don't show works in progress, the final results are more interesting. But i think this result is an amazing enough breakthrough to warrant a video all on it's own.

Detect Hydrogen with a Carbon Monoxide

Final Version

View Post

Patreon Preview - Detect hydrogen with a carbon monoxide detector

I took in some of your suggestions and rearranged the video for somewhat better flow as well. I think it turned out better.

Looking back, should i address the question of whether the combustible gas sensor also detects carbon monoxide (it does) and why we bother to have to separate sensors? 

(The actual explanation is that having separate indications let's you better assess the dangers of whatever gas is leaking so you can decide whether to evacuate and/or how to find the actual cau...

Pareon Preview - Detect Hydrogen with a Carbon Monoxide Detector

A quick video for your review.

Do you think the long winded explanation starting around 3:45 is too long and boring? Maybe i should cut it down for a concise video? I don't know.
