Wrong halogen! I mean, you've presented a strong argument for its endless utility, but, NI3, purple smoke.

For me it's

Do we have a Most Behated Chemical thread ;)

I like the smell of chlorine and iodine, but bromine is like a horrible marriage of the two.

But generally, as long as they are not actively trying to harm me, I love them!

This thread is 10 years old.

I'm a simp. But my favorite are going to be gold and platinum, wouldn't mind having those as a gift.

Hydrogen peroxide, especially at higher concentrations.

As well as things that do chemiluminescence, would need high concentrations of H2O2 and NaOCl for red chemiluminscence.

And phosphors too of course.

What would be a next-step for me? What would be a good category of chemicals for me because anti-bacterial/anti-viral and phosphorescence/chemiluminescence?

Sulfuric acid!

I don't know if this one is my most bellowed chemical but it´s the chemical that is mostly used in various procedures over all.
It´s a universal chemical with so many uses.
Really a shame it´s restricted in many parts of the world.

Not too long ago I bought a keg (15.5 gallons) of 98% sulfuric acid for around $100. Cheapest way I could buy the stuff even though it was way more than I’d ever need. If it weren’t for having to ship Hazardous Materials expensive, I’d spread the wealth around. I store it in glass carboys, and it is beautifully clear. Bought it from an oilfield chemical supply outfit here in Texas. I think it was called Brenntag Southwest.



You can’t claim you drank all day if you didn’t start early in the morning.
