Hello all,

does anyone know of a good source for,powdered Aluminum, Benzoic acid or Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Permanganate, and Resorcinal? Also looking for good prices! I live in Southern California (the San Fernando Valley). Thanks all....

P.S.,What is the "Chemical Network" !

Some good sites

unitednuclear.com is a good place to check out you can order over there in cash. Also pyrotek.org if you have pay pal or a credit card, but they have cheaper prices. Well you can produce Al powder with a ball mill it just takes a long time.

www.al-chymist.com has good prices on all sorts of chemicals, as well as glassware and lab equipment.

unitednuclear is crap. overpriced.

I don't exactly remember why, but some people at E&W mentioned that unitednuclear was a malicious firm.

It was another blinding flash of genius from me; just an idea. It doesn't look like many people here have an optimistic view of human nature, so it won't get off the ground. Hobbesian whingers.

The Al-Chymist clearly was hacked...

no...

The Al-Chymist wasn't hacked. Those pictures appeared right around Halloween and have been there since. I presume that they show Al-Chymist employees and/or friends/family of employees in their Halloween costumes.

Had anyone acually ordered chemicals from al-chymist? If so what payment method did you use? because they said they dont sell chemicals to miners and I'm a miner. So i was wondering if a money order will do the trick?

Polverone - 1-12-2002 at 13:32

No, they do sell chemicals to miners. Didn't you see the big banner about their mining and assay supplies?

But maybe you mean minor, someone under 21 years of age :P

I've ordered from the Al-Chymist. I used VISA. I don't remember when I got my credit card, but I don't think I was 21 yet. I would guess they would take any credit card. They didn't ask me for any proof of age or identity beyond the valid credit card. And, yes, they also say that they will accept money orders. If you'd clicked on their "legal" page you would've been able to read all the details yourself...

I think Skylighter sells most of that stuff.

btw: Alchemist you live right near me.

trinitrotoluene - 24-12-2002 at 20:53

I say Pyrotek.org sell better chems and a better price.

BTW:AlChemist and Anarchist i live in CA, in the bay area:D
