Glycerin

[TryptamineScape]

Can someone explain to me what happens when glycerin is heated? Could it be possible that a glycerin extraction is harmed by heating?

Glycerin decomposes at 554F (which is its boiling point) to form a toxic and corrosive gas called Acrolein. You will know when this happens because it is a sharp acrid smell. Think I would just buy it pure, they sell it at pretty much every walmart/ walgreens type store. Don't kill yourself extracting it :smokin:

I mistakenly thought you were extracting Glycerin from something else and I realized that this wasn't a chem forum :stoned:. Keep in mind when heating, that glycerin can become pretty flammable too. As long as the glycerin is kept below that temp it should be all good. Good luck :thumbsup:

I was actually wondering about that... I mean, if you added nitrogen to glycerin, shouldn't you get NitroGlycerin? lol, probably not but still...

well...if my house goes off like a methlab, yall know what happened...

Well... making nitroglicerin from glicerin is pretty easy... but i wont put the recipe here, cause it use some acids, and i know the rules about other drugs...

[TryptamineScape]

apparently it is easy...you can find it anywhere on the internet...then again you could probably find ways to make a nuclear warhead on the internet...so...but no I'm not worried about blowing my house up heating glycerin...I just wanted to know if it boils early or anything. That was the original point of the question.
