Their "hydropak" product supplies hydrogen after adding water to a solid state source, which I'm thinking might be sodium borohydride. Has anyone had
experience getting NaBH4 from this source or another similar source? I'm just concerned separating the NaBH4 from the solid matrix might be a pain in
the ass and not practical.
So, where do you men find these reagents?not_important - 6-11-2010 at 18:47

he fuel cartridge used in the MiniPak called HydroSTIK has a battery-like form factor and contains a special metal alloy that allows hydrogen to be
stored in a solid-state, as part of the metal alloy matrix inside the cartridge.
What a bummer though. How do you get your NaBH4, not_important?Justin - 7-11-2010 at 01:08
There was some on ebay in canada about two weeks ago, 71USD for 100g, its gone now, keep your eyes peeled, it shows up on the forum sometimes toozed - 9-11-2010 at 01:48
"very necessary chemicals"?
For what? starch - 9-11-2010 at 02:28
mercuric acetate should not be hard to make ones self as not_important suggested
boro might be a little harder to come by

hmmmmm i dont think ne ones gonna give you there source for boro gh34522 - 9-11-2010 at 07:48
I don't use NaBH4, so obtaining is not a problem. In the past it was simply purchased, or obtained with the aid of various research folk when the
local conditions made purchase difficult; always small quantities so issues of ... activities the Laws would be interested in did not arise. SelfStarter - 22-11-2010 at 21:43
There are sources for both mercuric acetate and sodium borohydride that sell to hobbyists. They are not that hard to find and have already been posted
on this board.jock88 - 7-6-2015 at 14:30
How would one dispose of mercuric acetate and chloride. I have about 50 grams of each and need to get rid of them. Is there any easy way to convert to
mercury metal?Tsjerk - 8-6-2015 at 06:35
If you don"t know": you went over your head.
but besides, what would you need 50 grams of mercury for?
Ps: bring it to the local chemical waste center?

I would suggest selling it to gh34522 as that solves two peoples problems. But mercury salts are best disposed of as the sulfide as those are pretty
insol. and safer for the environment.
Opps, missed the 5 year gap. Maybe post what country you are in and someone local can arrange to buy it. There likely is someone who would like it.

If he's still looking five years later, he should find a new hobby.jock88 - 8-6-2015 at 12:52
Thought it a pity to give to local hazardous center. But will do if I have to.
It's BDH General purpose reagent (98%) 100g of each.
I want the mercury metal to put into the bottle with my other 500 grams!!!
Back in the good old days you could purchase 500 grams mercury metal over the counter at the lab supply house.
Is it legal to put through the post (europe)Tsjerk - 8-6-2015 at 13:24
