In this video, I'll be making nylon 6,6 again, but I will be doing it the "industrial" way.
Instead of turning the adipic acid first into adipoyl chloride, I react it directly with hexamethylene diamine to make a nylon 6,6 salt. Then using heat, I force the salt to polymerize.
So, as usual, I made a bunch of mistakes and decided to re-upload...
Today we are working with a vanadium compound for the first time! The reaction that produces the ammonium metavanadate is called a metathesis reaction (I forgot to say it in the video).
Ill be using the ammonium metavanadate to make adipic acid, the redox rainbow, and the mandelin reagent.

For this project, I'll be making radioactive uranium glass, which was very popular 100 years ago. Under a blacklight, the uranium in it fluoresces to give off a nice green color.

In my opinion, fool’s gold is a really interesting mineral, and in this video, I try to show some of its cool properties.
This is the first in a series that I hope to do on mineral, so please suggest any other ones that you might like to see!

This version of the distillation is for the people with a small attention span. I keep it to the point, with no background details.

Hello everyone, today we are making a precursor to luminol called 3-nitrophthalic acid.
I plan to do an Q and A video, so if you have any questions you'd like me to address in the video, leave them in the comments.

Sorry for the black background too, makes it a little hard to see things.
Hey guys, just a video I shot this weekend with a friend. I kind of regret not using a larger beaker. The residue at the end is still black because there wasn't enough peroxide present to full oxidize the carbon to CO2.

In this video I carry out a desctructive distillation to produce putrescine. Putrescine is a useful molecule used in the production of Nylon.
This is a more of a proof of concept than a useful method of putrescine production.

Metal has no odor and you can't smell it. But what are we smelling then?
It turns out that it's mostly a chemical called 1-octen-3-one, which is generated when your skin oils react with metal that you've touched.
I thought this was really interesting, and I decided to try making pure 1-octen-3-one myself and to see what it smelled like.

When glycerol and dry potassium permanaganate are added together, an extremely exothermic reaction occurs. The potassium permanaganate is an extremely strong oxidizer and it completely oxidizes the glycerol to water and carbon dioxide.
