Glowing objects are a mesmerizing sight. You can make various fabrics, paper and any absorbent surfaces burn in different colors without electricity by spraying a special liquid paint. Making glowing liquid at home is much easier than you might imagine.
You can get "fire water" in several ways, but you should remember to be careful when making it, as it will require chemical reagents to work. The first method of making a luminous liquid at home To prepare a solution, you will need 35 g of dry alkali (KOH), 0.15 g of luminol, 30 ml of dimeskide, a fluorescent dye, a half-liter flask with a stopper. To obtain a luminous liquid, it is necessary to mix luminol, alkali and dimexide in a flask, close the lid tightly and shake well. After the glow appears, the water can be tinted with a fluorescent dye. When the glow diminishes, it is enough to put some air into the bottle, the light will become brighter. The second way to make a glowing liquid at home You need to take for the preparation of 3 g of luminol, 80 ml of 3% hydrogen peroxide, 3 g of copper sulfate, 100 ml of water, 10 ml of sodium hydroxide solution, fluorescent dyes, several clean test tubes. To get a luminous liquid, you need to dissolve luminol in water, add hydrogen peroxide and copper sulfate to it. Caustic soda is poured into the flask last, after which a light blue glow should appear in the test tube. For other colors, dyes can be added to the test tube. The third way to obtain a luminous liquid at home You need to take 20 ml of a solution of washing powder, 10 ml of three percent hydrogen peroxide, 5 ml of a three percent solution of luminol, several crystals of potassium permanganate, a glass. Hydrogen peroxide and luminol, a powder from crushed potassium permanganate crystals, are added to a solution of washing powder. After stirring, you can already see the result. It turns out to be very easy to make a glowing liquid at home, however, many problems can arise with cleaning the container after such chemical experiments, so it is better to take dishes that you will not mind throwing away.
