Post by remlap12 »

Good morning all,

I am trying to source some Sulphur chunks without much luck! Has anyone purchased any recently? If so, where from???

I managed to make some of my own by heating sulfur in the fume cupboard. When it liquefied, I poured it into small moulds (like an ice tray). It's very fragile but has lasted a couple of years, the pieces just get smaller as it breaks!

Just do a search for sulphur roll on this site. There are hints for making your own roll or buying it in from suppliers. ChemSupply is currently $104 for a kilo. That would probably see your science dept through to the next century, maybe :D . Other science suppliers may come in cheaper. Have a look.
