Eriochrome black T wanted


I would like to get 1 gram of the subject compound (solid). The smallest amount I can find is 10g, which would last me several lifetimes. I can purchase, or maybe trade some EDTA-Na4. You can U2U me or my email is cwamelotti@att.net Thanks

I'm still looking for this chemical. I would like to trade/purchase 0.5-1 gram. I am offering to trade 10-20 grams of Na4EDTA, or will pay US$2 + mailing for 1 gram.

Interesting. What is your intended use? Also, I have seen the EDTA sodium salt around and always wondered what it is used for... Could you enlighten me?

Wait... I was thinking of something else. The eriochrome black t is an indicator, right?

Cool. I had never heard of complexometric titrations before.

I have all the EDTA I could possibly need -- the disodium salt not the tetra sodium salt. This sounds like an interesting process. If you locate some then I will gladly buy some from you. If we had enough takers, perhaps you could buy the 10g and split it four or five ways.

I prefer calmagite, but both can be found on Ebay:

Eriochrome can be found, too. But, as you say, in rather large lots (10-25g).

It doesn't seem that expensive. Even if 10 grams is more than you need, it might be worth blowing a few bucks on it.

I was going to suggest sharing a purchase, but by the time you factor in some additional postage between the US and here, there isn't really a lot to be saved.
U2U me if you want to arrange something.

@Loptr: Sorry for the slow response. I guess you've already discovered that EBT is an indicator used in complexometric titrations of many metals, especially water hardness (Ca+Mg).

@j_sum1: With luck, I may have found 1-2g, which should serve my needs nicely. Where are you located (not in Kansas, USA, I presume)?

@O3: Thanks for the information. I was not aware of that indicator. I've only been out of the loop for 30 years or so, so I have much to relearn and learn.

I just finished digging it out of storage and actually have a bit more than I thought. If anyone else wants some send me a U2U.

Before this goes back in storage. U2U if you want some. $10/first gram including postage US/Canada. $5/g afterwards.
