Ever since I was a kid, I've been fascinated by things that glow in the dark. I had a few glow toys that I really liked, but I either lost them or gave them away. I could've just bought some new ones, but I thought it would be a lot more fun to make my own from scratch.

@franksijbenga3724 4 года назад

The sadness was added to a beaker, and washed with about 750 ml of carbonated 5% ethanol solution that was sourced by fermenting grains. The ethanol solution was added in stages, and at each step the sadness dissolved more, eventually becoming hardly detectable in the solution. This was not a permanent solution however, as the clean up process the next morning turned out not to be easy. A large part of the sadness seemed to have precipitated on the couch, and after several attempts at removing the solid components with various solvents, I had no choice but to discard the couch in my waste container and buying a new one from Amazon.

When dried down our dryer or with a lighter flame it bleaches out the dyed color of the shirt so we can print light colors on dark shirts.. But also once its dried we can use a uv blacklight to see where that layer is to know if we need to align it more.

@manan-543 4 года назад

It shows you how a person with a science background approaches problems. It's intriguing to see his thought process and also something to learn from. It's includes creative and out of the box thinking like the how he decided to try out the doping on a small amount since he wasn't sure if the copper sulphate was 100% pure. Also includes some trial and error and if you fail you gotta have ways to fix the problem. Another great thing was how he treated time as a resource and went for the quicker and arguably better methods than the long winded ones.

Mine reveal????

@redalpha333 3 года назад

Time after next "But to me that was almost the same thing as just buying the pre-made zinc powder." So I purchased a mine and dug out iron by hand which I then smelted to make an pickax which should let me get more zinc faster

Dear NileRed, I have been watching your videos for almost 2 years now. Your work, your videos are always very engaging, interesting and enlightening sometimes also funny xD. If you are free please try doping the Zinc sulfide with manganese ions you said, it will give a reddish glow, it will be really interesting to watch something like that. I have never seen a thing like that and i couldn't find any video of it on RU-vid. @20:40 Thanks Wishing you a lot of success in 2024!

i think something thats very underrated, is that in the beginning when he was reacting the zinc and sulfur he says "it can be ignited with a hot glass rod" and it does nothing, and then he says the same exact thing again for the iron and sulfur so it makes u think it wont work but it actually does

Does anyone else's sound not work properly on his videos. There is about a 1-2 second audio pause before he speaks each time during the voice overs. So I miss first 1 to 2 words he is saying each sentence. No other youtube channels do this to me but this one.

I see that you plan to make another version of this in the future, which might be "now". Have you seen the europium glow in the dark paint? That is supposed to be even stronger than anything else. I do plan on getting my hand on some to do some test batches.

@antaresyoung9614 2 года назад

I think it's really cool that when the zinc / sulfur mixture the initial ignition almost has the exact same color as green glow in the dark powder.

I hated chemistry when I was in middle/high school and only by watching your videos have I realized how cool it can be. Question about 36:00 though and please pardon my laymen understanding of chemistry and physics, but isn't strontium radio active? Legitimately curious how it can be used in glow in the dark products (reminds me of Radium watch hands)?
