Morning !
I wonder if this thread might be a place to pass on findings relating to the solubility of various photochems - a more concentrated location where our collective learnings are shared.
I'd like to see various chemical solubilities in propelene glycol (glycol) and triethanolamine (TEA) in particular.
One should of course state the conditions in which the solubility occurs (temp. and agitation method in particular).
Any reasonable assumptions should also be eliminated if possible. For example, TEA means what it says ... 99% TEA. Not an admixture of DEA and certainly not the watered down variety !
Other issues should also be observed, like something precipitating out of solution again at 20 C ...
So to start out, what how much pyrogallol can I dissolve into TEA at 70 degrees C with constant agitation ?
Then there's the Pyrocatechol in glycol ...
I believe the solubility will change when more chemicals are added to the brew so the estimates we see here may not be absolutely correct but we should be able to come to a fair estimate nonetheless.
I trust I've made a reasonable request !
Cheers,
