1. Fight it
2. These Lab Notes videos are great. Really love them.
3. Good luck on the new job!!! :-D
I don't understand why they can't just put your "questionable" videos behind an 18+ disclaimer instead of giving you a strike. There are plenty of other videos about questionable stuff not even close to educational given that treatment.
Yt is just BS, there are however workarrounds like bitchute but we'r looking for better alternatives... not to back up videos but to back up comments because they are way more valuable
My guess is that this strike is more likely related to "teaching how to make bombs", so I doubt that lets say, a terrorist is not over 18, so a +18 disclaimer/restriction wouldn't do much
@@metalpachuramon I get the sentiment but if we retreated every time that something *could* be used for malicious purposes, we will wind up with restricting videos on making very pure water.
@@RobsMiscellania everything could be used to kill...
And to kill someone you dont need a tutorial, not to mind if a terrorist would follow the NaCN he would prob die
Natural selection...
Censorship - the revenge of the infants.
You should fight this. Yes the video might be dangerous but it's educational and to go and make something from your video would be the fult of the person who attempted it. In that video you took all the precautions necessary to not put your self in too much danger. Plus not being able to recuperate the lost revenue is pouring salt into a wound.
well the prob is, it does show people how to make a poison...
@@Hackerhunter15 This differs from generally other chemistry experiments except baking and cooking channels? Even those if you want to take it to the eventual conclusion, It's the dose not the chemical. A cooking show explaining how to make a triple layer double fudge cake would essentially be poison to a diabetic.
On top of being poison, it's also a bait/attractant.
@@Hackerhunter15 The dose makes the poison. A little sodium cyanide will kill you, but so will a lot of water. Besides, it's not his responsibility if someone misuses the information any more than its a blacksmith channel's fault if someone watches their videos, makes a sword and kills someone with it.
guys ik, was just stating youtube's point of view.
RUclips is an embarrassment when it comes to strikes. Yeesh, man.
bolshevism seeks to destroy everything that was once considered normal life. Only the ZOG states are allowed to cause harm. The plebs have to just shut up and be 'nice'
@@TheFissionchips I just love pseudo-intellectualists. They sound so smart, until you tease out what they said...then it's just more conspiracaaaaaaaaahhhhhh theories and racism. Boring, tired subject matter hardly worth thinking about. At least they finally got rid of Alex...so that's a step forward for mankind.
faking a SINagogue shooting isn't going to earn you any sympathy either. False Flag Fail Army = MOSSAD.
Asmodeus - a demon from the TALMUD!!! lmao
Fuck off, lampshade.
I do love your recently made SOCK PUPPET channel. 2 subs - no vids. Playlists created in the last 2 weeks. I bet it was you or your mother who flagged Nurd's video.
"You might be thinking we can use dioxane to recover the sodium droplets from the slurry..."
Nope. Sure wasn't. But I appreciate your faith.
You should do what CodysLab did, and create a backup channel in case anything happens
I'm almost positive that it is against TOS if you post to another channel once taken down. . Likely with that they will take both down.
Or start backing up your videos to another site entirely.
Not true John Black Super Chemist was shut down and came back under JBSC with success. Make a back up channel NR!
@@alexmongelli6266 What is not true? Just because someone has done so (for now) does not imply in ANY way it's not against the TOS. As stated here support.google.com/youtube/answer/2802168?hl=en
'Account terminations
*Users whose accounts have been terminated may be prohibited from accessing, possessing, or creating any other RUclips channels.* When an account is terminated, the account owner receives an email detailing the reason for the termination.
"
This should be enough to back up what I said earlier, is it not?
CodysLab will show you his results good or bad. This fraud will use a commercially purchased products to substitute the ones made on film for the sake of a good vid. Just try reproducing any of them. You may end up in the ER or just have a disappointing result.
RUclips is full of people playing with explosives, but they're afraid of a standard laboratory reagent.
Honestly appreciate the 4k content. I have seen RUclipsrs with millions of dollars in assets (car RUclipsrs especially) who film using a potato. Thank you so much.
In the "strike".... NO, NO NO NO NO NO! that was PURELY educational and RUclips has zero grounds for it's "strike"... FIGHT IT!
You should appeal the strike and action taken against you. You do put disclaimers and warnings in your videos before you do the procedure, after you explain the basics of what your making. So, you should be able to fight this action taken against you as it's not fair.
The fundamental problem is that the strikes are largely automated, and if the case is elevated to an actual human, that human is unlikely to be an expert on the video's subject matter, and hence unlikely to make an informed judgement.
But also, of a human evaluated the contents of the video, they will see that there is a disclaimer/warning saying not to reproduce what was done unless you have had proper training to do the type of procedure, and even then it's not advised to do it.
@@elliethompson5535 I think the problem in this case is the step by step instructions he provided to make dangerous chemicals. That one was particularly dangerous and a hazard
Eolann Kitteringham however he did put the warning so there’s no reason it should have been taken down. Knowledge should not be censored.
Hearing of failure is soooooo much better than hearing nothing at all.
True. Failure teaches a lot. Share your failures with others so they can learn with you.
I think this is one of the most educational series I've ever seen. Great work.
Glad to hear you got a new job. Hope you like it! Feels like you been looking for a while, i remember the videos with rather pessimistic comments on your job search
Been subbed for years. This channel will be sorely missed.
I don't know enough to properly follow the chemistry involved, instead I just get a general feel for the workflow, so I'm glad you're now making videos about things that didn't quite go as planned, because I feel like it gives a better overview of the experimental nature of your work.
I get this nagging feeling i'm forgetting something but can't quite put my finger on it... oh well, probably nothing important.
NurdRage have you tried breathing normal air inatead of sulfur hexafluoride?
hi NurdRage, since you've mentioned that you had an actual Ph. D and spent some time teaching chemitry, i want to ask you if there is any literature that you consider absolutely mandatory for studying chemistry? like a particular author or even particular book
Lol, had to watch till the end to get that joke.
(Remember to remove this and replace it with something thankful and witty. Otherwise you'll look like an utter fool for forgetting and leaving in a temporary placeholder graphic. Everyone will point and laugh, shouting "There goes Dr. N. Butyl Lithium, the guy who forgot to change a temporary graphic on his own youtube video." You will never be able to show your face in public again. You'll be deported to America. Your name shall become synonymous with fool, The UN will pass a resolution declaring you an embarrassment to the whole human race. Whatever you do, remember to change this card.)
If you believe the coalescence issues stem from charge on the sodium, could you test with a nonreactive (eg anodized titanium) pair of electrodes running a small current through the solution? That might be enough to get the smaller globules to begin merging together at the site of one or the other electrode, and if you keep the voltage low enough it shouldn't cause any unwanted electrolysis reactions. I would predict that any globules would stick to one electrode on contact, and readily coalesce with others on the electrode, while the other would repel the globs.
Congrats on the new job!
Congratulations on your new job :)
Both the length of this video (12:34) and the endcard are wholly satisfying.
This channel is so great!
I really hope you don’t get banned. I absolutely love your videos and love learning through them.
I hope you can finish before RUclips drops the gavel on any more vids. Great work so far!
Awesome video. Please don't stop making videos.
We love and miss you brother!
The strikes really suck. This was one of the first channels I subbed to. Even stayed subscribed for that year or two that he was at a new workplace, and couldn't film anything at all. When he came back it was such a happy moment. Hopefully the channel lives on for a while, and he's able to release at least a few more great projects.
*casually makes redundant NR backups again*
I will try to make it into a riddle in an attempt to make this comment appear: xz7i11waybackXC9wk
Whether it worked or not that stack at 3:01 is super satisfying visually.
excellent work
Great video again! Please do some more work on the Urushibara nickel as it is the most important amateur chemist;s hydrogenation reagent.Thanks for your work!
Great video!
Have you ever tried trioxane in place of dioxane for the sodium purification/coalescence step?
Could you add a small amount of magnesium at the end of a run to coalesce the sodium?
Wouldn't it be possible to wash your Urushibara nickel precursor with dilute H2SO4 to get the zinc oxide out similar to how you described washing your zinc metal?
RUclips actually suggested you on the front page!
Time to archive some of your videos, they are too good for us to allow them to disappear down the memory hole.
Terpin was also used as a home cold remedy for awhile as well.
Have you considered putting high-bitrate versions (what you upload to youtube) of these videos into a torrent or something? So people can still get a copy of them if you channel gets shut down.
I say torrent, because paying to host all of them online would probably be expensive if they're rarely downloaded.
You are good at taking batteries apart.
Isn't the metal hydride in Nickel Metal Hydride batteries the same as Raney Nicel catalyst?
In the sodium experiments, have you thought about the nucleation speed against the nucleation growth proportions, apart from excess Mg absorption, maybe other options ?
The sodium globules may also be coated with some gunk that prevents them from coalescing. I saw a video that used a bit of isopropanol in oil to clean the surface of sodium or potassium. Perhaps n-butanol or some other alcohol with boiling point above 100 C will work?
The gray powdery precipitate presumably is magnesium hydroxide with some very fine sodium particles. Can it be separated by mechanical means? Like, if you could raise the density of the liquid to 1.0 or so, the sodium should float, while the Mg(OH)2 should still stay at the bottom. But I can't think of an easy way to do that...
You could also get a very fine stainless steel mesh and make a sieve out of it and a steel can.
you can also purify nickel from actual nickel coins, which is a mixture of Nickel and Copper. Dissolve in HCl, then run it through a chromatography column with cellulose using first acetone-hcl as a mobile phase, then dilute hcl.
I think a comment to a previous sodium synthesis video of yours mentioned pinacol. Would it work?
How would the zinc oxide get through the filter? It should be insoluble in water and methanol. Or is zinc chloride coming through?
I've done thorough research on terpin hydrate production, found nearly all possible receipts and tried synthesis by myself... successfully.
There are several important points regarding this synthesis.
Firstly, acid concentration and temperature matter a lot. Depending on these two parameters, you either get desired product or a lot of byproducts and various junk. Terpin hydrate is the product of hydration of terpenes, which occurs at low temperatures (30C and below) with 15-65% strong acids like sulfuric or nitric. If temperature is higher or acid is much more diluted, dehydration occurs instead of hydration.
So, you have good chances to get terpin hydrate out of your first run (unless you let it get too hot), just need to remove organic layer, neutralize aqueous layer and maybe wait a couple of hours (since the product has a tendency for oversaturation).
Very interesting! Thank you for the pointers. I'll see if i can revisit this synthesis. Thanks
@@NurdRage You're welcome! Actually, I did this research and syntheses to kind of assist you in trying out terpin as a catalyst.
A quick update: neutralization of acid in the aqueous layer might be unnecessary, crystallization centers can be created instead. For example, by simply wetting a glass rod with solution, letting it dry and scraping formed crystals back into solution. On the other hand, complete crystallization can take up to 24 hours at RT this way. According to literature process is somewhat accelerated and yield is improved by warming mixture to 35C (looks like terpin hydrate has the lowest solubility in water at this point).
Is nurdrage the first to use the "sodium as a drying agent, 4-Terpineol method, and dioxane to clean it" method?
1) whats the new job?
2) you said your sodium project is your last great project - are you quitting soon?
3) do you have a backup of your videos available anywhere or should we start downloading?
4) any chance on making shorter videos on quick demonstrations or syntheses like the urushibara nickel?
If you don't have the patience to watch his "long" videos, maybe you should see a doctor about it? Or get a new hobby?
@@maggiep9007 I guess he prefers playing Minecraft.
Maggie P i suggested that because the shorter videos would be easier to make
Minecraft Player Producing condensed material takes more work than otherwise.
Ask a writer.
I know this is random but the talk of nickel chloride made me remember. Does nickle chloride react with aluminum? I tried this with nickel chloride I made with pottery grade nickel carbonate after about 30 minutes no reaction occured but according to the reactivity series it should work. What could be the issue?
So glad we have bizarre sassy cop videos of 11 year olds that go uncontested. Three cheers for youtube :(
Can You please upload your deleted videos to somewhere else on the Internet?
Why don't you use potassium permanganate and sulfuric acid mixture in the production of terpine hydrate?
You should upload the removed/restricted videos elsewhere.
I can imagine an awesome thermite display using the sodium mini bbs. Some metal that coyld be useful but hard to come by perhaps?
what's your new job? Congrats on that!
If I were you, I'd start uploading videos unsafe for RUclips, as well as other videos that got sacked a looong time ago, to other platforms.
Problem is that nobody is on those platforms. RUclips has a de facto monopoly on video sharing, at least in the English-speaking world.
This is why, to me, "it's a private company, it can do what it likes" is no defence any more.
@@alexpotts6520 This is the neoliberalism in action, when a private company has more power than governments and the governments are unable to control them.
This is why patreon exists...
@@alexpotts6520 I don't understand this argument, if he uploads videos to that platform, then we will just go there to watch them..
@@tmfan3888 In fairness to western governments, tech companies are an exceedingly tricky case for policymaking. You can't break them up because they are natural monopolies; you can't nationalise them because their services are not confined to any one nation. Regulation is probably the best solution, but it remains very difficult because the amount of data these companies carry is just mind-bogglingly vast. It's tricky for anyone to regulate, let alone a domestic government that has a thousand other priorities.
Okay so question: im doing a research paper (for high school) on sodium production and im having trouble getting sufficient yeilds. My set up is a 250ml erlyenmeyer filter flask with some tubing attached to the filter thing and running into a graduated cyclinder thats capped lightly with a stopper on a hot stirring plate. I added 150ml mineral oil, 15g sodium hydroxide, 20g of magnesium ribbon, and about a gram of lithium. I then heated for about 8 hours between 120-150. I then added about 10ml of tert butyl alcohol and raised the temperature to a range between 180 and 250 for 24 hours. I didnt have the best stirring (magnesium was a little too big). When i checked it out, I was getting a dense gas coming off of the solution (im assuming it was mineral oil) and not much of a change other than some of the magnesium turning slightly yellow. i started putting in more alcohol and the solution started to bubble and lose heat, but quickly came to an end. I kept adding until it stopped reacting (30ml ish). I never noticed any bubbles being formed and only got about half a gram of sodium (i think atleast). Is there anything wrong with my procedure?
Too much alcohol. do not use more than 2mL for that amount of magnesium.
Best Dam Channel On CensorTube!!! Knowledge is Power! America use to stand for the basic Fundamental Values of Free Speech and Education for All!!! But unfortunately more more every day we’re getting closer and closer to 1984!!!!

America is far from the worst.
@@ZENMASTERME1 Yup, I see Undoomed is live. Time to start spreading:-)
That's because the US govt administration is at the mercy of Zionists- Organised Jewry. They are of an authoritarian and meddlesome nature towards gentiles. Total control freaks.
Hey Nurdrage, I may be able to send you some samples of catalyst used in hydrocracking and ethylene production/purification.
BTW Will you publish your results somewhere on the internet (like sciencemadmess) in case of being banned before finishing?
Do you upload your videos to a "backup" platform ? (so they stay available)
If you can't have stuff on RUclips, *please* find another place to have it up. Your videos are arguably among, if not the best on RUclips, and the knowledge and experience you bring in your videos cannot be underestimated.
I'd argue that while some people could be idiots, the net benefits of having the Sodium Cyanide synthesis video outweigh the risks, not the least of which being the fact that if people want to do something, they'll find a way to do it, using less safe methods and increasing the risk of something going wrong. At the beginning of that video, you outlined the risks and created a strict procedure that would be safer than other alternatives (If memory serves- I haven't seen the video in a while, and it's not like I can watch it again now, due to the situation)
Either way, I respect your decision. I wish you luck, and hope you have a good day.
Make more chemistry lesson videos with experiments,plz. This might help me in my chem exams! Thank you...
Great as usual. what about using an excess of sodium hydroxide but add a large solid chunk of magnesium metal. It might react slowly due to the lower surface area but still give the desired charge effect. Also would you like us to keep a backup of your videos for you in case of a ban?
Whats your new job?! And i feel like i should try to download as many videos from you, NileRed, DoygsLab and CodysLab before RUclips just bans all of it and i lose all the videos... Lol
For what's it worth, in my old days I have tried Urushibara nickel in many versions and never got any decent results from it. For people looking into nickel catalysts, I would suggest looking into homemade Raney nickel from a Al/Ni oxide thermite reaction instead.
Maybe add a surfactant to mix the terpene/water layers?
So... when do you think you could publish your results in an article?
That sodium cyanide video showed up on my recommendations about a week ago. It is probably not a coincidence that this occurred when it was deemed a strike against your account.
Hey NurdRage, you should check out Floatplane!
*gets notification* checks sub box and notifications. Sees no video.
When I saw the sodium cyanide video I thought of the classic Ngaio Marsh mystery novel Death in Ecstasy. A woman is poisoned using sodium cyanide. One of the suspects owns an 1890s book on chemical oddities and several other suspects have access to it - and it describes a method of making sodium cyanide. The entire synthesis isn’t given, and maybe it’s not based on a real one, but it uses sheep’s wool, iron filings, and sodium carbonate among other things if memory serves.
Is it not possible to centrifuge out the sodium dispersion from the slurry? There are some DiY mechanical solutions out there using string whereas a commercial option may only cost a few hundred dollars.
You can easily centrifuge it and I believe he discussed this previously. He wants to make the process accessible with the least equipment possible. He already has discovered significantly more simple methods that require slightly more uncommon equipment, but is dedicated to making this viable with only cheap, domestic chemicals and with basic labware. For the same reason, he doesn’t use palladium as discussed above.
Ocimene, terpineol, cymene, limonene, Pinene, linalool, myrcene, caryophylline, even beta: these will have future use in advanced organics, even cubane synthesis starting points, perhaps.
Hello I am no chemist at all, but I was wandering if witchhazel would work and if manganese could replace magnesium?
Manganese is much more unreactive than magnesium and is harder to get, so no. Commercial witch hazel contains water, which violently reacts with sodium. I am not quite sure if pure witch hazel oil contains any tertiary alcohols.
Pleas tell me how to do color silver nitrate polis on glass
Is that video uploaded anywhere else?
Is any way that i can download your videos before is goes
Make sure you set up a 2nd channel and link to it so we can migrate over should they take this channel down.
Has anybody downloaded video about sodium cyanide? I planned to make it last week but unfortunately fume hood fan broke and im waiting for a new one...
Could you "cook" down the sodium particles to bring them together?
Of course, you add a little butter, let it sit for around 5 minutes, then add some salt and a dash of olive oil to give it some flavor. Filter through a funnel and store it in a vial.
can't wait to make my own hydrogenated tea tree oil so i can spread it on my morning bagel
Just fyi I couldn't find a single reported procedure for making the Terpin Hydrate from 4-Terpinenol on Scifinder.
You're best
At first I was startled that your terpin hydrate scheme seemed to show a migration of the tertiary hydroxyl group from the ring carbon to the isopropyl carbon, but then I decided it was a mistake :)
It goes through a double bond intermediate as mentioned in the video.
In way over my head on a project and I have a question about removing specific Ions from a solution, and I don't even know where to look to find an answer.
IF ANYONE could point me at something to read to work on my issue, much appreciated... Description follows:
I wanted to make some Mono-ammonium Phosphate crystals for a project. I bought 25 pounds of "100% soluble" fertilizer. Between my recrystallizations and filterings I am sure I have introduced zinc, chrome and a little bit of iron ions into the solution. Its now affecting the crystal formation and I need to fix it... like how do I purify that?
Contamination is the fault of being cheap, the original product was slightly contaminated with something that clogged a paper coffee filter, the color suggested an iron oxide complex. I used a basic sieve to support a paper filter and after a few quick filters the "stainless" was stripped to black iron. I Guessed at this point that stainless was a zinc coat on a really cheap (dollar tree) product.
The chrome contamination is the fault of immersion heaters. MAP made the immersion heater look like it was cruddy aluminum, it appears to selectively steal the chrome from the actual stainless. (5 seconds in borax and the immersion heater rusted)
The solution is just slightly orange (not red brown, orange), I suspect that's chrome not iron, which I will test for later, the point is HELP can I fix this simply or should I have paid 15X or more for lab grade stuff to get to optically clear MAP.
That title card (12:13)... The Nobel Committee frowns on such things.
pesky details
It is disappointing that you aren't going to fight the strike. But it is your channel...
If everyone was Nurdrage, the human race would have solved all its problems and there would be no more problems in the world, but CERTAINLY no one would be taking down their videos.
"Right to know", in the context of United States workplace and community environmental law, is the legal principle that the individual has the right to know the chemicals to which they may be exposed in their daily living.
Perhaps adding Magnesium at the end of the run would coalesce the Sodium?
Zinc powder can sometimes have a pasty texture to it, it just means it's very fine, the color should be much darker though, powdered zinc has a dark grey appearance, when I used Zinc that looked like yours in organometallic reactions it was completely unreproducible.
hi i did not visit the channel for some time i know yt is pissy about guns BUT ABOUT SCIENCE FFS any ways i was wondering if you do get taken down where might we find your videos
Ti2O u can use?
Set up a second channel as a backup, we cant loose you as an educator!
How does one drop Nickel out of solution?
Always number 2
I'm going to repeat what's already been said by others, but you should definitely make a backup channel!
maybe sodium sand is more useful for some reactions than solid metal?
Fight all the strikes.
maybe try peertube ?
Enzymatic hydrogenation?
