Ive personally sourced most of my elements from luciteria science, I find they generally have great pricings, variety, and purities, not to mention shipping speed.
I love your fluorine sample simply because I find fluorine quite fascinating because it's the strongest oxidizing/most electronegative element that there is hell it's the only element that beats oxygen at its own game of oxidizing things! Fluorine is such a badass element that it can simply set many things on fire at room temperature just by touching them something that oxygen usually doesn't do thankfully.
@@DietterichLabs yes you are right. Promethium emites beta radiation and Radium emites Alpha particles. Do you have an Alpha particles reading Geiger counter?
8:53, I had an obsession in high school as well. Despite the allure of deuterium my obsession went in a more biological direction. Thanks for the video. I've made a video as well of my element and compound collection. It's not as extensive as yours and I mostly avoid the more toxic substances. Just search for my name on RUclips and you should be able to find it if you're interested. I'm still searching for a source of Unobtainium to add to my collection.
First of all, greetings from Turkey, I also want to make such a collection, but since I was 13 years old, I may not be able to buy some elements. Where exactly can I get these elements? Some elements come from items used in daily life, but there are some that don't come out, can you tell us what comes out? It will be difficult, but I think I will try to search for uranium with a geiger counter in the village. I can get 20 elements for now. Elements are used in places that sell construction materials such as batteries and hardware stores.
Hello Detriech Labs , I dont know you ever heard of Cody's Lab Channel but he does have done interesting experiments. He almost had got trouble for purifying Uranium, Cesium Play button, Experiments with Mercury, and made many more!
It would be great if the fluorine was more pure because it's meant to be a pale yellow gas however I'm guessing that would also make it potentially dangerous also there's a form of fluorite called antozonite that contains elemental fluorine! :)
I have heard of antozonite. It is one of my favorite minerals because of its elemental fluorine content. Also, even if the fluorine in my vial was pure, it would still be difficult to see, because it is a very pale gas. You need a much larger cross section of the gas to see it.
@@DietterichLabs Also it wouldn't last very long since fluorine is so incredibly reactive that it would react with the glass, the helium is supposed to prevent or at least slow down its reaction with glass.
@@mattvonwenden5405 I was already aware of this supplier, but I hadn't noticed that they sold these elements. I am especially impressed by their technetium sample. However, it will be a while before I can afford something like that. You are right, it is very expensive. As it happens, I actually already have promethium watch paint, which is the sample they offer for promethium.
@@DietterichLabs Just wanted to ask, I am planning to start collecting the periodic elements myself, and have seen loads for sale on eBay. Is there any that are illegal for the public to own in a private collection?
@@MrNed09 Yes, but you won't find them on eBay. Most radioactive elements require a special license to own that wouldn't be given to a collector. There are a few exceptions to this.
Hi, I want you to know that I loved your video and it's a great guide for beginners like me, but I have a question. How did you recognize the radius painting of the neptuniums on the different clocks? I would also like you to make more videos teaching how to extract elements from everyday and not so everyday objects. Greetings from Spain
@@markgable1280 I have about 80 of the elements on the periodic table. I don't have an exact list of which ones I do and don't have, but I tend to focus on the exotic ones. I find myself drawn to them.
Where did you get all of your radium paint? I would love a sample of radium larger than a couple of clock hands, I've been looking all over but no luck in finding any.
I'm not necessarily recommending it. I'm just showing some of what I do. Additionally, I am not new to chemistry, or working with chemicals that possess hazardous properties. As a result, I am fortunately not naive about their potentially hazardous properties or any risks associated with having them. It's sort of like with the Cody'sLab RUclips channel. I have made the informed decision doing it. My video is not intended to act as a recommendation that others should also try it.

Fluorine is one of my favorites too, for all of the same reasons.
HOW DID YOU RECOGNIZE THE PROMETIUM CLOCKS FROM THE RADIUM CLOCKS?
The type of radiation it emitted
@@DietterichLabs yes you are right. Promethium emites beta radiation and Radium emites Alpha particles. Do you have an Alpha particles reading Geiger counter?
I Also know how to make Plutonium and others radioactive elements, if you want to know how to make them just ask
Wow. You have liquid xenon!? Wikipedia os asking for a pic of one.

what the t-butyl isocyanide smells like?
And n-butyl isocyanide should smell worse because lack of steric hindrance
Great collection and perfect presentation! Greetings from Poland
Impressive!

I order many of them on line from chemical suppliers
@@DietterichLabs thank you
get some batteries from a dollar store then get the carbon rod zinc case and the manganese powder out of it!
I've done that before, although I didn't show it here.

@@brfisher1123 That is the description that the supplier gave.
The only element you are missing is technetium and promethium! You can find in Pitchblende but only very few atoms!
I have heard that, but that is kind of unsatisfying. Maybe one day I will get to work with meaningful quantities of such exotic elements.
@@DietterichLabs I could redirect you to NovaElements, which sells both the elements. The Technetium sample is extraordinarily high in costs though..

@@DietterichLabs Tc is available from Onyxmet as well, I got my sample from there.
@@mars4ever Ya, I saw that. Unfortunately I don't have the money right now.
Bet you can’t guess MY favourite element 😏
Mercury
Awesome! Looks fancier than mine ngl.
FANTASTIC video, thanks for showing your collection, definitely worth subscribing to your channel. 👍😉.
Thanks for watching.

Extraordinary video! Definitely deserves a sub and Ill be looking forward to more.
Thanks for the wonderful comment. I appreciate it and the subscription.

What do you mean "what does he have?".
Dietterich Labs oh, like “what elements do you have?”

Where did you get all of your radium paint? I would love a sample of radium larger than a couple of clock hands, I've been looking all over but no luck in finding any.
I got it from clocks at antique stores.
@@DietterichLabs I so need to go and see if I can find some. How long ago did you get it? What kind of activity is the sample?
@@coolcat_vlogs69 I got it a few years ago, and I don't remember the activity.
@@DietterichLabs Ok thank you. I'll be sure to try and get some more myself.
Nice collection!
Thanks! I'm always looking to build it bigger and better, but money is tight.
Nice
do you have gold?
Yes, in the form of chloroauric acid. see 34:22
Gold is not that expensive if you buy small ammounts. There are much more expensive elements such as rhodium.
@@gardenchemistry rubidium is most expensive
@@babushkablyattv2751 well it is not. Rubidium is only 14$/g, ceasium is 73$/g but rhodium is 76$/g
@@gardenchemistry ok
I sent you a tweet on twitter that you might be interested in.
cool
Why do you have such exotic chemicals?
I'm a collector. I just find that kind of thing interesting.
Dietterichanian Science it just seems that some of the stuff may not be exactly the safest to deal with in an amateur non-laboratory setting
