It certainly is. It is, though, necessary to purchase certain compounds. I like best when I can make something myself, or discover that gloss catalyst
for spraypainting has acetoacetone in it. I know what you mean. the so-called OTC Purism is what most of this forum is about. Besides, if you can't
make it through OTC purism, there has to be some other motivation. Sometimes this is 'energetic materials', which is fine. If you have a random
organic chemical, and can chlorinate it, you do. But if you are going to make something for the sole purpose of making it, there would be no reason to
make an obscure compound from a non OTC source.
I'd say this is more a misc. topic, but no big deal. Besides, most of my posts are in misc. anyways :/ |
