As I understand things, psudo is a polar-soluable, which means it will disolve in a polar solvent and not in a np solvent.

psudo is also acid soluable, correct?

The next q is, does anybody got a list of common solvents and the p/np tendancies?

how bout acetone? polar, right?

yes acetone is polar, that is why it mixes with water, that is why I am so confused as

to why these meth synths say rinse in dry acetone and shit.

they sayin methamphet and ephed isnt soluable in acetone that is bullshit.

why do you think methheads push pull setup involves acetone purification with a VACCUM?

Somebody here at totse keeps saying dry your acetone with epsom salt or you will lose product. WTF? youll lose product if you douse your damn meth with dry acetone even.

I think the majority of the people on this site are hypothetical cookers where

they just think that meth isnt soluable in dry acetone. Absolutely do not boil any pills in acetone unless you plan on saving the acetone portion and evaporating it also as ephed and metha re soluable in acetone especially if boiled.

I hear exactly what U are saying. actuly I was screaming the same thing before I posted. All the stuff I hear Is confusing a fuck, and always 2 exact oppisite statements.

I ain't been doing this long, but I got more confused each time I post to get some answers, and get more questions when shit don't add up.

Ive got sodium xylene sulfonate injections for the next wannabe marine that tells me to acetone flash my crytstals in a filter.

Dry acetone will NOT dissolve meth, Treephrog. If it has any water in it, it will dissolve meth. If it is dry, because it evaporates so quickly, it helps to clean and dry the final product.

Where's my xylene injections??? I'm ready for one.

I'll fight to the death that dry tone flashing makes for cleaner final product.

For more info about polarities, check the Solvent Polarity Index. It is a list of solvents with a given polarity number, 1-10. Acetone is a weird one, although it is miscible in water, when completely dry, it has totally different properties. It acts much like a Non-polar solvent when completely dry.

Acetone is an organic Solvent; specifically is a Ketone (Condensed formula being CH3COCH3). The C=O group in the center of the molecule allows it to be dissolvable in water as it give polarity to the Acetone Molecule. But also as its a organic and due to the nature of the C=0 bond allows acetone to dissolve many Organic liquids.

Hopefully that'll help a little

*Note any Ketone will have similar properties in regards to solubility as Acetone. eg. High solubility in water, and will act as a good solvent for many common organic compounds.

interesting, thank you fool-------------surely you could have chosen a better name than fool---makes me feel like im paying attention to the writings of the village idiot, which obviously your not

Lukky D, ok well, your statements boldy

backup the fact that I have dry acetone

and I dissolve my methamphetamine in it to

rid any rocks of oxygen left after evaporation in the plate.

And I just ran out of clean points so nevermind. (kidding, I dont bang shit).

you disolve your meth in acetone to remove any oxygen in the meth---well thats one ive never heard of,,

look I don;t know about you, but I know how to make some of the BEST glass youve ever seen, since evaporation of water from methamphetamine leaves "spaces" in the molecules, you first dissolve your meth, in

whatever fast evaporating solvent you like this brings the molecules together to make

the first stage of glass, then after that

you further process the "glass" to make crystal nuggets. But I won't tell you how to do that since you gass there is no need for it. Trust me .

you dont know about me,,well the feelings mutual,,but let me assure you it is not i who is abused daily by many who use this forum---and trust is a hard won commodity which there is very little of---i crystalize as it increases purity ---wether you gas or not
