Hey, I happen to have a bunch (pounds) of sodium perchlorate, the hydrate. Rhombic platelike crystals, the hydrate more or less, off-yellow from
dichromate. Considering KClO4 is so low solubility, and certain other advantages to the Na salt, would anyone be interested in some? Aside from such
droll uses as making KClO4 and NH4ClO4, I wonder if someone adventurous here might need it for making perchloric acid, for example?
I'm open to alternative uses, myself, but I'm sure as hell not going to make perchloric acid with it (even if I had the hardware, Fleaker 
).

The 72% HClO4 is about as dangerous as conc. H2SO4. There is no danger of explosion or undue toxicity besides the corrosive action whatsoever.
I've done its preparation myself.
Just as a side comment...

Hello 12AX7,
I would be interested in getting some. How do we go about it?
I do NOT have ANY perchlorates, so this would be nice.
Thanks, the Alchemist.....
