Here before the nuclear safety guy does a reaction to the vid

The uranium play button will be such a cool project

honestly the scariest part about this was that you used HF ☠

reminder that uranium-238, the most common form of uranium by far, has an extremely low passive radiation level. if you ingest it, you'll be at least a factor of ten more likely to die of heavy metal poisoning than of radiation poisoning. (lead isn't the only poisonous heavy metal, it's just the most common to be exposed to. uranium has similar effects.)

Ah yes, the good old Cody's lab method. I still remember that legendary video.

I can finally add another video to my ''Blacklisted due to youtube' class action lawsuit

Nuclear chem is the whole reason Im back at Uni at 45. Great Video DO MORE!!

Hmm Uranium playbutton? Do ittt

*We are all on a watchlist now.*

The Tetrafluoride is such a beautiful color. My sample of it looks so good sitting next to all the rest of the compounds in my collection. Great video! Thanks for sharing.

I wish I could do this! But I don't think Australia would like that very much lol

Uranium chemistry is so fancy! Great video bro

We need more inorganic chemistry videos 👏

For the moment I thought you are colliding two neutron stars or at least supernovae. But it makes more sens you just reducing a metal salt to metal. This is also interesting though. :D

I am not sure if I should watch the video or start downloading it immediately

You make this nuclear chemist proud, love to see the uranium dissolve in organic solvents. solvent extraction is amazing.

Uranium play button would be awesome Also thunderf00t was on the path to make a uranium ring but abandoned that project and i think it would be really interesting to see uranium being casted in a ring shape then machined to clean it up

Love seeing this, I work with depleted uranium every day in my lab researching future nuclear fuels, so it’s super cool seeing the process to make the depleted uranium.

You’re reaaaaaal close to 100k my man

I'm going to download this video I remember what happened to Cody!

Wow, nice result! I didn’t expect a very metallic looking product after you described your “heat it in the ampoule” method, but not bad

Congrats you’re all on a list now

I love all of the colors involved in the process. I wonder how each step fluoresces...

Nice priject. What would happen if you electrolyze a uranium or thorium salt solution?

Just what I needed thank you!

Depleted uranium, health issues and after-war diseases in the countries it has been used as armor-piercing mass projectiles in the documentary "Deadly Dust" (2007) from the German director and filmmaker Frieder Wagner.

fascinating material, nice work!

An enriching experience.

Thank you, very useful video.

This is a fed channel, isn't it?

I see you did the last part cody's lab style! very nice prep man, you should try doing the whole process of extracting uranium from ore, you could even get some radium as well :p

What a fascinating video!

You sound Dutch. Loving the content!

I love uranium chemistry so much.

I would love to see a video where you are making enriched uranium

Great, we need more. Do thorium next.

yummy, thanks for the food recipe

So did heating the UF4 make a difference between unheated?

I’m hopefully gonna land a job doing radiochemistry. Sounds like a lot of fun

Definitely make a play button 😂❤

"I'm Tyler folse, im a nuclear engineer with a little over 10 years of experience in the commercial nuclear power industry from engineering operations to emergency response, I don't claim to know everything there is nuclear, but I can certainly share some knowledge"

Pls do a cleanup second channel type video. Feels relevant for that one Noice

I like the title, very nice.

Well done and congratulations on graduating to real (inorganic) chemistry! So what difference (if any) did the pre-drying step make, and could you measure the shiny piece's density for a crude indication of purity? TL;DR Metallic U really does react incredibly quickly with H2O and O2 *AND* N2 gases, such that attempting to cast or re-melt it without a continuous flow of Argon cover gas (or, at a minimum, vaccuum sealing with a very large excess of Li metal and covering the reaction mass in 2-3cm of liquid Li-Na-K-Cs with a suitable flux mixture on top), usually results in a fairly poor yield of multiple small corroded pieces of metal; though even in the best case, where a single metallic mass is obtained, it will be riddled with numerous defects, slag inclusions and poor porosity. Getting to a solid block of metal that at all resembles the common metallic element samples, is most easily done by cleaning, washing and drying the obtained U granules/shot under an inert atmosphere or under vacuum and then re-melting everything into one solid piece (only using inert and oxide free materials in contact with the U, such as Oxygen Free Copper or Tungsten).

such a pretty blue

That's exactly what I wanted to make a video about aswell. But I don't because the police would probably come by and take all my equipment and chemicals :/ Idk how it is in the netherland or with your qualifications.

more like this pleasee😢

thanks

Actually they do use Tungsten for armour piercing ammunition.

great video man

Why are the screenshots of this video so fuzzy?

Sugestion can you synthesize a schiff base (primary amine with a ketone or aldehyde) some of them smell really nice

great video

would displace the chlorine work instead of converting UCl4 to UF4 ? for example, would UCl4 + 4 Na ---> U + 4 NaCl work or not ?

when you don't upload a video for a long time, you understand how something will come

What happens if you try to reduce UCl4 with lithium directly rather than using HF to convert it to the fluoride first?

It's videos like this that make me question why I didn't get into nuclear or chemical engineering.

I did not expect the ANVS would allow us dutch's to handle this, would it be possible to legally make a sub-critical reactor? I'm not sure if I'm correct but if you bombard the U-238 with neutrons from a neutron source (or even cooler a small fusion reactor) it becomes unstable U-239 & neptunium-239 that decay's with allot of beta decay giving you more heat than power put into it. Also there would be some plutonium-238 created further helping the reaction but it cannot runaway since it has a sub-critical mass. I wonder if this is legally and psychically possible on a small lab scale.

Depleted uranium is pretty much 238U, which has a longer half-life than the other isotopes! Better for a collection! (Though for most isotopes there’s little practical difference.)

That Is really nice.

Delicious,there’s nothing like home made

Good job！amazing！

dammit i was trying to do this. Though instead of UF4 I wanted to explore methods using UCL4 instead of UF4 due to its rarity at amateur scales (excluding you ofc haha). Im surprised to find that the nranyl nitrate can be directly used to produce UCL4 , rather than the typical, baking in an oven to make UO3

A fuel cell play button or if we're really trying to get a friendly knock from your friendly fbi agent make a nuclear reactor play button.

More uranium chemistry! We want more! More! More!

Is there a way of isolating the metal that doesn't use bone-hurting juice? (And if you *are* using HF, shouldn't you be doing the reaction in a plastic or passivated-metal container, rather than glassware?)

I’m learning

Question here: he clearly has all the compounds and precursors for several drugs, for example Methamphetamine, @chemiolis are you sometimes tempted to try and make these compounds?

Where have you bought the Uranylnitrat?

Its interestyng this video

I have a significant amount of thorium ore i collected from a local closed thorium prospect. Would you be interested in it at all?

More Uranium pls

Yo we getting out of the reactor with this 🗣🗣🗣

Please make a video about How to make Pure Radium, Even though It isn't cost effective! I'm so exited about it! please ! Please! Please!

Careful.

its strangely terrifying to me how much of the process really is straight up homestuck green

more uranium please

I think we can safely say that Chemiolis is the Nuclear Chemical KZfaqr

Why don't you simply use borax with na2co3 as reductive agent directly on UF4?

Idea for next videos: sunthesys of repelents like DETA, and others

That actually seems like a fair amount of gamma for what is a primarily alpha and beta source

Do Methaqualone!

I got to see this before the government makes him take it down!!

Cody's lab made it from ore before but the video was taken down

Awesome!!

Photolytic chlorination of chloroform to carbon tetrachloride next please

Doesn't HF degrade your glassware??

Excellent video.... how about reaching critical mass ??? :D

How did you end up buying from a Bulgarian pottery store ?

A bit better way of doing this is to seal it in a stainless steel pipe that is lined with pressed magnesium oxide then fill the center with a mix of UF4 and magnesium. Backfill with argon and seal. Next heat the pipe in an oven till bright yelliw white hot and allow to cool on its own accord. When you open it you will have crumbly MgO, a slag of MgF2 with some uranium in it, and a glob of uranium metal.

Cool video. Sadly Cody's original video got him a visit from the feds.

This video makes me think about this guy that got arrested in my home town because he had a RADIUM FOUNTAIN

Saying depleted uranium isn’t so expensive is a bit misleading, depending on the application. Like with the above stated bullets made from depleted uranium. Those are crazy expensive and super hard to get. It could be more of a regulatory thing but I just know that you don’t see them everyday for a reason.

jak zrobic uran wez kawale,k zelaza i obij go nastepnie wymieszaj wegiel z olejem rzepakowym i natluszczaj kawalek bitego zelaza rekami i uderzaj w niego lekko nastepnie do wody z dyrgo nadazotanem dodaj 5g sodku zelaza troche wegle i krzemu i pomieszaj mocno nastepnie zakwas roztwor delikatnie i dodaj kilka ziaren soli dorzuc troche miedzi. to gotowe. znajdz kawalek metalu o duzym uziemieniu typu blaszka i polóż pod pojemnik z roztworem wrzuc do srodka ten kawalek bitego zelaza tylko najpierw zakwas go kwaskiem cytrynowym i po sekundzie wrzuc do srodka nastepnie jonuj powierzchnie substancji obojetnie jakim napieciem tak wzbogacisz go do dowolnego stopnia o ile ladunek sie nie skonczy

Next video Uranium enrichment, pls

Do you not think you created more Uranium oxide than Uranium metal? It's just that your kiln barely gets to the temperature than Uranium would melt and it's not under an inert atmosphere. I studied how one might do this in a home lab and the part that seems the hardest to overcome is building the furnace suitable for such a project and then having a big enough amount that the slag can be easily separated from the Uranium metal.

wait oml fluorine chemistry too wow

To make uranium I think you need a supernova.

Yes you need to make a radioactive play button

A video on what you did with all the waste from this would be awesome. Of particular interest would be what you did with what was left over from that "random excess of 48% HF." I have guesses at these things, but those are just guesses.
