It doesn't seem to be very important to me what concentration the ethanol is. The reaction will be driven by the fact that ethanal evaporates very readily. The more dilute the ethanol is the slower the reaction will procede.

I think I'll try that. I also have some 40 volume hydrogen Peroxide the same one the original post was talking about so I'll see if it works as well.

By the way, I've read is really toxic. Did any of those who've produced it get any side effects?

Aldehydes aren't exactly healthfood but if you work in a reasonably ventilated space or outside you'll probalby be fine. Docters in training smell of formaldehyde all the time and it generally doesn't seem to kill them :)

MSDSs can really scare you away sometimes. I normally look at those for precaution anyway but sometimes I just have to make sure.
