What is the temperature you've maintained for the reaction including dissolving the components .. and do you have any reasearch supporting this procedure??
It was conducted at room temp, and the solutions were gently warmed in the microwave to dissolve them, I think. It's been a while since I did this particular reaction. I didn't follow any paper, I just did some quick and dirty stoich to find those quantities.
Maybe, I had those solutions for a few months in tight bottles and they stayed the same color. Fat chance you'll be able to get a solid though...I tried a bunch of different solvents to precipitate and none worked.
I also prob made this this adding Mo metal to Aqua regas (magnesium nitrate) in 31% HCl. When baking soda was added i got i think Mo blue 😂 which sadly decomposed when i used it as a pigmrnt. 😮
That's a shame. The solution produced by my method is quite stable. I used 20ul pipette tips to write with it on paper; the "ink" leaves a clean blue line and remains stable for weeks. The method you used formed a sodium salt rather than an ammonium salt I believe.
Wouldn’t be complete without the aphex twin soundtrack lol
cool

thank you

@@Zenzicubic okay thank you
What is the temperature that you have maintained during the course of the reaction
Would 15-20% phosphoric acid work instead of HCl do you just need a fairly weak acid or does it need to be HCl?
In principle yes. However I cannot attest to that, I've only seen hydrochloric acid.
Nice to see my model of stirplate... 😉
What do you store and use the solution for?
It's useless aside from looking cool. I just put it in my inorganic storage, but thanks for watching though
Hi that is very interesting do u think the mo blue Is stable as a pigment.

@@Zenzicubic Hmm, could you electroplate with it. Send electricity threw it and coat the Mo blue onto copper for example.

Oh the strips measure the ph near 2.

@@Zenzicubic Ammonium as a buffer for the pigment. Great idea.
