In this video I make the toxic rocket fuel hydrazine through a quite obscure method involving committing sins against safety by mixing ammonia and bleach while getting crappy yields and praising my homemade fume hood.

    Is there something that prevents you from just burning everything in a high oxygen environment? Carbon just disappears as CO2, MgO2 is already oxydized and Zinc I would assume just melts and puddles at the bottom.

    oh dear lord the moment I saw the title I was like you are super not suppose to do this at home. My father is in semiconductor sector and he took me to every plant on the steps except for the one that does this if that says anything as to how dangerous/dirty this stuff was. to be fair, it is not complicated and people do that on a industrial scale regularly. it just involves so much hazardous chemical and super dirty in terms of pollution (well low profit margin + not give a shit about environment back in that time) that very few regions allow those factories to operate (in a profitable way) iirc they essentially dissolve the pretty pure stuff in large amount of HF and get high purity silicon that way. also while you are at it how about try to grow some single crystalline silicon and cut them into wafers? that would be cool edit: after watching the video it isn’t as bad as I expected, glad that is the case edit2: did some quick research on how they do it. NOW I know why my father won’t let me there. Think about huge reactor vessel filled with heated H2 and SiH4 to get 11N Si. If that thing bursts the plant explode kind of stuff. closest I have been to SiH4 is in a CVD line and single crystalline silicon growing column. Yeah also have seen multiple vets of HF in half inch thick teflon and other stuff that are safe until anything went wrong. Also get to see SiH4 blow up once in the CCTV recording of an accident, nobody is hurt too bad though. scary stuff Also for anyone curious the 7N silicon pallets I get to see is a beautiful light blue color in a styrofoam texture. I am sure someone can figure out which process does that come from
