hey guys, do you know a good substitute for weighing paper that can be found in the kitchen? I was thinking about parchment paper but I'm not sure if
it's a good ideahalogen - 10-7-2016 at 18:20
why not? are you weighing something corrosive?Volanschemia - 10-7-2016 at 19:13
Paper muffin holders work well. They have a wax layer usually as well.law - 10-7-2016 at 19:48
I have lots of chemicals to work around with (more than 60) and most are in powder form. And I was just wondering if the parchment paper can do the
job or if there is something in it that may alter the final result of an experiment

That's a good one for large quantitiesArtemus Gordon - 11-7-2016 at 14:48
I use pieces off a roll of waxed paper from the supermarket. I suppose tiny flakes of parrafin wax could fall off, but not enough to worry me, and the
smooth surface helps the chemicals to slide off cleanly. I suspect parchment would hold on to more particles of the chemicals.Artemus Gordon - 11-7-2016 at 14:54
I imagine butcher paper would also be good, since it is paper on one side and smooth plastic on the other.macckone - 11-7-2016 at 19:15
Report covers are good. Nice smooth plastic that is generally nonreactive.
regular printer paper is also good.feacetech - 11-7-2016 at 19:29
why not get some weighing boats and or watch glasses?
if you chemicals are un reactive you could use foil tart disheshighpower48 - 12-7-2016 at 09:27
