Potassium Dichromate
I pass this on for anyone mixing their own solutions that use Potassium Dichromate, and there are quite few formulas that do !
Potassium Dichromate is already hard to buy and it will become much harder to source from 2017 as the EU ban comes into force The trick is to stock up whilst you can Potassium Dichromate is also used by the textile industry for dying and it is sold there as Chrome Mordant, exactly the same a Potassium Dichromate. It can often be found there at OK prices. Here is one such offer on a fav auction site that is a current good buy. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2912988304...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Stock up whilst you can - I have Neil.

Oxford ChemServe is listing potassium dichromate
http://oxfordchemserve.com/potassium...r2o7-99-100-g/ But it is out of stock at the moment. Not much of help if you're looking for it immediately. But I thought I should mention about it for future reference. Bests, Ashfaque

Barry,
That's not good news .... maybe they've been jumped on by those who are paid to jump on these things! But if you are desperate 50gs can still be purchased in this kit: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fibrecraft...8AAOSw-jhUKsn8 NB. Potassium Dichromate and Chrome Mordant are the same. £14.95 + free postage, but you will end up with some other chems that may not be of any use to you. The last time I looked Process Supplies still sold Potassium Dichromate but it has to be sent by courier. Neil.

I've just been given a large box of raw chemicals in which there is an unopened 100g packet of potassium dichromate. I can't see myself ever using it so it's of use to anyone here PM me. There's also a nearly-full 500g jar of ammonium dichromate. I don't think I'd be able to post that though as it's marked 'toxic & explosive'!
