For this project, I'll be making radioactive uranium glass, which was very popular 100 years ago. Under a blacklight, the uranium in it fluoresces to give off a nice green color.
WARNING: Working with uranium and radioactive material is dangerous, and this video is for entertainment/educational purposes only. Please don't try and repeat what you see. Also, when the project is done, the waste needs to be dealt with and handled properly. On my second channel, NileBlue, I show what I did with it and you can check it out here: • Cleaning up my uranium...

Fortunately the most basic of cyclotrons are by far beyond the average idiot, how they will then build a centripetal device to accrue mass while limiting accelerated exponential decay is beyond most of the worlds top physicists.

I'm a Boro-silicate laboratory glass blower. I've worked with custom uranium glass before. The trick to keep your specimens from shattering is a technique known as annealing. To accomplish this, you would want 2 separate furnaces. One for melting and the other for annieline. Place your graphite block in the aneeling furnace at about eleven hundred degrees fahrenheit. Open the door once the block and the furnace is preheated. place your spasiman On your graph light block at eleven hundred degrees for at lea half an hour. then Slowly reduce the temperature of your aneeling furnace without opening the door. Over the course of twenty four hours And till your sample is near room temperature And you should not have any internal stress anymore This process aligns the internal crystalline structure of the silica Transforming it into a stress free homogeneous mass. You will want to reduce the temperature on an inverted J curve slowly at first. But once you get past about 400° fahrenheit leaving the door closed u till it has completely cooled you should be fine

I have now acquired another piece of knowledge I may never need but still was interesting to learn about.

Didnt he try to do just that?
@@pressaltf4forfreevbucks179 yh he said it before he did tht why so
@@pressaltf4forfreevbucks179 Not exactly. As the OP said, the proper way to anneal glass is to place it in the oven and let the oven cool down over time in controlled steps. Most of my friends who have taken glass lampworking more seriously than I did have ovens specifically meant for this process. He's trying to make borosilicate glass (think Pyrex), but I'm puzzled since he's not using aluminum oxide in the mix as is typical from what I understand. The omission may be intentional, but it also may be in part why such small pieces were so sensitive.
The mother of an old school friend of mine had a large collection of uranium glassware. She kept the glass in a locked leaded glass display cabinet with and alarm system.The artwork was very beautiful, I believe the collection was quite valuable, most was a light green.
I like Uranium Glass too - it's very pretty.
But I wouldn't bother with the leaded glass cabinet - normal glass would be perfectly adequate for the Beta and Alpha rays, and hundreds of kg of leaded glass would be inadequate to absorb the Gamma radiation.
Check if the glass *really* is lead-rich. The lead *strip* used to hold plain glass panes together is radiologically useless - and that is the normal meaning of "leaded glass".

When I was a kid in the 60's my Brother-in-law worked at a Uranium extraction plant in North Dakota. The plant had. a huge kiln where Uranium ore was dumped in one end, then heated and transported the length of the device and came out the other end in a different form. Occasionally a bolt or nut would drop in with the mix and come out the other end as a blob of steel imbedded with uranium ore. He gave me a couple of these, with the advice, carry them in your pocket for a few weeks and you will never have to worry about making your girl friend pregnant. Well I never did carry them, in fact I donated them to a. museum to be displayed in their mineral collection, where they still lay, emitting radiation into the pure South Dakota air. The Brother-in-law has now gone to his rewards, as has my sister, he good wife, cancer took them both, hell it attacked me as well and my other sister and my good wife of 51 years and 4 days. Mine, the Doctors say is survivable, where the rest of my family's were not. Funny how that works, I am now healing from the holes in my belly where the doctor cut me open and took out my cancerous Kidney and half my adrenal gland.
Holy hell, why would he give you that? Probably shouldn't have been employed at an extraction plant.
how did he even got the job with no knowledge of radiation at all

And no nukeular energy
@@chloroform7204 A lot of countries, apparently. It's actually really easy to get nukes, you don't even need to build nuclear reactors, but most countries don't want them or have nuclear allies. Any country willing to spend some GDP on nuclear research can dig uranium out of the ground, enrich it to weapons grade in centrifuges, and voila--You're a nuclear power. That's how North Korea got theirs, without a single reactor.
Hence why the argument for less reactors to stop bomb proliferation is utter nonsense, it's actually the complete opposite. Ironically, 10% of the energy created by US reactors is from old soviet warheads bought from Russia, rather reactors have done the most to stop proliferation.
To be fair that is a con
In photography, some really old lenses have amazing optical qualities, because the glass contains Thorium (I think it’s thorium)… maybe, if you have the gear to measure optics, try and see if you can find the recipe, methods, and ultimately results of such optics
Erbium is used in fiber optic cables to improve TIR quality. Doping is such a wild science trick.
I know three local blowers who have screwed around with uranium glass. Al Young in Detroit probably did the most. He melted a few pots of it, at a much higher concentration than you used, and drew out bars of the colored glass. John Fitzpatrick in Ferndale got his hands on a couple of those bars. You can break a chunk off a bar, pick it up on the end of your blowpipe, and blow through it. Windy Dankoff ran pots of it at a more normal concentration and gathered it for paperweights. I have some of his.

Right? I was watching the glass dust falling off the pieces as he was tapping them and thinking that radioactive dust plus glass dust is possibly the worst combination.
Radioactive glass is dangerous. Proceeds to touch uranium with bare hands.
I’ve been picking up uranium ore locally with a UV torch for a bit, and like you found, it’s strange that some of the higher uranium-content materials lose their fluorescent effects. Uraninite and pitchblende both have relatively high uranium content but have little to no fluorescence. While uraniferous opal is much lower (hard to find info, but never exceeding 15% uranium-bearing compounds, typically MUCH lower) and can exhibit some great phosphorescence.
It’s also helpful to have UV blocking glasses, at least for ore / impure uranium. You’ll be able to see some bright reflection without them, but the classic green color is much easier to see without the semi-visible UV light interfering

Man, I just love how you act smart and calm, yet puzzled 😂. Overall very cool, what surprised me though that even me as an like could tell it would need to anneal when it was cracking, because I assumed a certain simillarity with the steel structural behaviour, and I was at the end correct. When you had pulled it out straight away, you had basically tempered it, making it hard but brittle, where with the annealing, you've managed to make it not as hard, but more tough, simillar to steel. Very nice video! 🧡

Back to uranyl nitrate what fascinated me (i was but a child back then) was that the container it was in always had water droplets forming on the inside. I used to say it ¨sweated¨. :) And i used to take it out in my own hand, clean the water and put it back it. But the little glass bottle would ¨sweat¨ again. I also played quite a lot with elemental mercury. It's amazing i am still in one piece :) But in any case, i have come to learn that chemistry is a very beautiful science if done properly and safely.

When you blasted the glass with your torch, you caused some "reduction", converting the uranium oxide back into metallic uranium which went into colloidal suspension. This can produce pretty metallic swirls and white opacity. Controlled reduction is used to do things like giving a glass dog white paws.

I love how this youtuber is so relatable, I haven't made uranium glass before just like him

Interesting. The only radioactive glass I've heard of really is trinitite, which is still too hot to go near. I know they used it in glazes and stuff, for crockery etc, but I didn't realise it could be made into glass in its own right. Cool. :o)

Dust go woosh
Hey Nile, i was talking to my chemistry professor and he told me that this amount of radiation was like viable to handle between 1-5 minutes, because this is like what you get in a year, so isn’t it bad to handle or use this for decoration or some thing like this?? Thanks for your time (btw loved de video and sorry for my English, im from Brasil)
I inherited some original uranium glass cups from my grandparents. They are super strong when they glow and personally I don't like the idea of keeping them around me so they live in my garage. I also have some colored glass that looks like uranium glass but doesn't glow or make a Geiger counter go crazy. Much safer and just as pretty imo.
You could probably get a lead case if you ever wanted to move them inside
@@aurifulgorei'm pretty sure it mostly emits alpha and beta particles. Alpha particles are blocked by literally anything, even sheet of paper, or few centimeters of air. Beta is blocked by metal foil or normal glass of standard thickness. And you can't block gamma rays by any meaningful(for a home use) amounnt of material - like few centimeters of solid lead. So leaded glass isn't really better than normall glass in this regard.

NileRed: "LET'S COOK SOME URANIUM!!"
@Gabriel Leite - Unlike Mr NileRed, Marie Curie had a high, long-term exposure. Her shop was liberally sprinkled in the uranium distillation materials. According to Wikipedia, "Because of their levels of radioactive contamination, her papers from the 1890s are considered too dangerous to handle. Even her cookbook is highly radioactive. Her papers are kept in lead-lined boxes, and those who wish to consult them must wear protective clothing." She died at about 67 of aplastic anemia.
@@MossyMozart that is metal as fuck
Nile red Uranium lab, get it? Meth lab, uranium lab?
That’s Re not Ur. Re is a worse element to work with.
@@MossyMozart I hope they made copies.
I remember watching it when it shows '2 hours ago', now it says '3 years ago', time really flies
Nilered is the type of guy to touch something containing uranium without safety gear and live to tell the tale
Broke: 24K diamond necklace
Woke: Uranium 24K necklace you wear once a month and store in a safe
Lead-lined safe
In a lead safe
It'll leave a lasting impact on everyone who hold it
Could probably wear it all the time considering uranium's multi mullion year half life
Idea what if you were to coat it in a thin layer of resin that had lead powder

Joke on him, he's already on government list
Haha
The uranium glass makes it tastier than expected
I'd try to use the black light through the lid rather than through the glass. Just curiosity if the glass jar you had the dry diurinate in wasn't filtering out the uv that caused it to glow.
"Minorly radioactive"
Me: hmm shouldn't drink from it
Nile: *slurp slurp slurp*
Nile: Mmmm... Taste like science and radiations.
*s l u r p*
Not a good idea but not because of the radiation.
It's literally harmless.
