TOPIC:

I tried to make the 28% Sodium Chlorite Solution, but it didn't work. It crystallized.
I went according to the instructions I received several years ago when I first bought the ingredients, & it worked then, but not now.
Maybe it is because I tried to make a small amount this time. The instructions that I followed are:
6 level tablespoons Sodium Chlorite (measured with baking measuring spoons)
3 ounces of warm water
I left it in the stainless steel pot that I mixed it in overnight. Had covered it & left it in the dark cupboard.
That was supposed to make 4 ounces of 28% MMS.
Next morning when I looked at it, most of it had crystallized.

I don't know what went wrong. Unless the instructions are wrong & there was too much S.C. added to a small amount of water
and it returned to a crystallized form.
When I mixed it, it had dissolved completely. But there was a very little amount of sediment at the bottom, which the instructions said
would be normal. As well it had a green & clear appearance. Again which was supposed to be normal.

Any help would be appreciated to help me solve this dilema.

PS: I need to make some fresh Citric Acid solution. I will try the people I got it from last time, but when I tried their website, it was no longer working. So I don't think their email would work either as it is linked directly to their website.
Would anyone know who in BC or Alberta, Canada sells the ingredients mentioned above?

Thanks a lot....Dora

Your problem was caused by using a metal pot to mix in. Use only glass or plastic - never use metal with MMS.

For suppliers (anywhere in the world) Go to the top of the forum page , right hand side , the orange button "Buy MMS".

I had thought I used the metal pot last time. Well, I will try a ceramic coated pot next time.

I did click on the "Buy MMS" and found two: one from China, and one from US/Canada. I am wondering if anyone had tried the Canada/US one and what their experiences were with them?
Thanks again for your advice. Will let you now how things turn out.
