IGOR'S LABORATORY, yet another fun filled paradise from the realms of The Banana Republic BBS, Auckland, New Zealand oday's topic: HOME PREPARATION OF NITROGLYCERINE ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ISCLAIMER: Despite his enormous and overwhelmingly gigantic intelligence and wisdom, Crazy Igor is totally helpless when it comes to guarantees, nd in fact his amazingness says on this matter: "IF YOU KILL YOURSELF, SUCK SHIT!!" You have been warned...... Today's Topic: HOME PREPARATION OF NITRIC AND SULPHURIC ACIDS ntroduction: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ itric and Sulphuric acids are the two key ingredients in the nitration ess of all common NITRO explosives. Contrary to popular belief, U DON'T HAVE TO SMASH INTO ICI TO GET THESE CHEMICALS!! f you want commercial quality acids, look in the yellow pages under Laboratory Suppliers and you will find one which will sell you small quantities of these acids (most lab suppliers supply them in L lots..) This file does not give any instruction in the preparation of explosive ompounds and mixtures.... for that info, see my philes ending in EXPlosives extension, the one applicable to this file is Nitro.EXP njoy! ysical Properties: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ l you really need to know about these acids is that they are acids.. Complicated? Well, all you need to know is that they are corrosive, (VERY corrosive), so don't pour them over your girlfriend's muesli. Raw Materials Required: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 12v LEAD ACID BATTERY Easily available OTTASIUM NITRATE See Saltpeter.PRP preparation Step 1: ^^^^ Place two parts of pottasium nitrate in a lab bottle with a one hole stopper lab glassaware is available from Auckland Glass, Parnell) Place a piece of glass tubing with with rubber tubing attached to it in the hole. Don't fill he beaker more the a quarter full of crystals Step 2: ^^^^^^^ Split open the car battery, trying not to let your hands dissolve too much n the process. Alternatively, suck out the battery acid with a straw. Boil his stuff until white fumes start appearing, these fumes are poisonous o don't sniff them.. This is now pure Sulphuric Acid (easy huh?) Step 3: ^^^^^^^ lace one part of acid into the bottle. Mix this into a paste with a glass od ep 4: ^^^^^ n the rubber tubing through an ice water bath into another open bottle. Place THE END yet another great chemistry lesson with CRAZY IGOR, your favourite ind of professor....
