Sounds like you've got a very interesting weekend project coming up!

  The synthesis section honestly looks very simple, I would assume a simple ceramic kiln could be used? You just need PbO, PbSO4, Cu, and P powders.

    kiln materials are listed, too not that i think it matters that much. the paper doesn’t indicate that synthesis is a particularly sensitive step.

    The powdered lead seems like something you need to be careful with tho. Quite toxic.
    • civilitty 3y ago
      No more or less toxic than the powders used to hand mix oil paints. Just buy a fume hood off ebay.

    P powders are tightly regulated in the States, but alas,that's where I live. How many matchbooks does one need to purchase to replicate this study?
