762461 2009-04-06 03:01:00 Johnny was a chemist
But Johnny is no more
For what he thought was H2O
Was H2SO4

I've always used Ferric Chloride for PCB etching

762462 2009-04-06 08:38:00 Everyone well a lot of people seem to call it HCL instead of HCI. I seen this dicussion in a chemical forum.
I am a member of chemical forums too. In print, we write "HCl" rather than "HCL" because the latter implies three different elements being chemically merged and available. However, when it comes to pronunciation, we say "Age See Ale" rather than "Age See Ai".

Ken: And yeah, chemically pure implies HCl being 32 mol / L! As part of my research during the summer, at most I have dealt with 10 mol / L HCl :p

Sweep: Nitric Acid = HNO_3 rather than H_2NO_3, just a friendly pointer.

Agent_24: Yup, I've seen that somewhere on deviantart ;)

Cheers :)

762463 2009-04-06 12:14:00 Try getting some hydrochloric acid from a industrial chemical supplier. I use to work for one over 20 years ago and use to get all the differant acids in bulk 200L drums or bigger, and repackage it in smaller containers.

762464 2009-04-06 22:45:00 From memory, the suppliers will be canny as I think it is used in the manufacture of "P"

I seem to remember a case of a dairy owner supplying it to gangs in Northland or something like that?

Ken

I think that was an owner of a supervalue selling Methylated spirits to people when he knew they were going to use it to make P.

It seems strange to me as I don't know where it comes into the process for making P (yes, I do know the chemical principle for making it), but then again with all the restictions in place, making the easy way impossible, they have to resort to some pretty creative science.

Thanks for that. It has been over 50 years since I attended a chemistry class. I guess my memory must be failing.
