Sodium Chlorate by the Jolly Roger
Sodium Chlorate is a strong oxidizer used in the manufacture of
explosives. It can be used
in place of Potassium Chlorate.
Material Required Sources
—————–
——-
2 carbon or lead rods (1 in. diameter Dry Cell Batteries
by 5 in. long)
(2-1/2 in. diameter by
7" long) or plumbing
supply store
Salt, or ocean water
Grocery store or ocean
Sulfuric acid, diluted Motor Vehicle Batteries
Motor Vehicle
2 wires, 16 gauge (3/64 in. diameter approx.), 6 ft. long, insulated.
Gasoline
1 gallon glass jar, wide mouth (5 in. diameter by 6 in. high approx.)
Sticks
Teaspoon
Trays
Cup
Heavy cloth
Knife
Large flat pan or
tray
Procedure
———
1) Mix 1/2 cup of salt into the one gallon
glass jar with 3 litres (3
quarts) of water.
2) Add 2 teaspoons of battery acid to the
solution and stir vigorously
for 5 minutes.
3) Strip about 4 inches of insulation from
both ends of the two wires.
4) With knife and sticks, shape 2 strips of wood 1 by 1/8 by
1-1/2. Tie
the wood strips to the lead or carbon rods so that they are 1-1/2 incles
apart.
5) Connect the rods to the battery in a motor vehicle with the insulated
wire.
6) Submerge 4-1/2 inches of the rods in the salt water solution.
7) With gear in
neutral position, start the vehicle engine. Depress the
accelerator approx. 1/5 of its full
travel.
Run the engine with the accelerator in this position for 2 hours, then
shut
it down for 2 hours.
9) Repeat this cycle for a total of 64 hours while maintaining the level
of the acid-salt water solution in the glass jar.
CAUTION: This arrangement
employs voltages which can be quite dangerous!
Do not touch bare wire leads while engine is
running!!
10) Shut off the engine. Remove the rods from the glass jar and
disconnect wire leads from the battery.
11) Filter the solution through the heavy cloth into a
flat pan or tray,
leaving the sediment at the bottom of the glass jar.
12) Allow the
water in the filtered solution to evaporate at room
temperature (approx. 16 hours). The
residue is approximately 60% or more
sodium chlorate which is pure enough to be used as an
explosive
ingredient.
