AI Thread Summary
Sulfuric acid is known to be highly corrosive, but certain materials are resistant to its effects. Fluoropolymers are highlighted as one such material that does not react with sulfuric acid. Additionally, aluminum is noted for its surprising resistance to sulfuric acid, despite common expectations. A resource link provided in the discussion offers further information on materials and gloves that are safe to use with sulfuric acid, emphasizing the importance of selecting appropriate materials in chemical handling.

Thread 'How to make Sodium Chlorate by Electrolysis of salt water?'

I have a power supply for electrolysis of salt water brine, variable 3v to 6v up to 30 amps. Cathode is stainless steel, anode is carbon rods. Carbon rod surface area 42" sq. the Stainless steel cathode should be 21" sq. Salt is pure 100% salt dissolved into distilled water. I have been making saturated salt wrong. Today I learn saturated salt is, dissolve pure salt into 150°f water cool to 100°f pour into the 2 gallon brine tank. I find conflicting information about brine tank...
