So I have a new goal in the lab and its to create Water Clear D9.
My question is there any methods that avoid chromatography? The reason is chromatography is slow.
-Keep roto under 35C
-LLE
-Scrub
-Water Wash
-Quick Pass with Extremely Low Vacuum (torr rating?)
-Fresh Material (Bio) Only
Are these the key elements to achieve water d9? Is there anyone out there that can help with what is the best media, torr rating, LLE style or an easier method?
Can anyone link me to Breaking.Dabs tech his post had a ton of info I just cant find it again…Thanks guys.
Running a column is going to really help, it may even be required depending on starting material quality and if you are trying for water clear in volume r in a cart.
Isolate can be isomerized and then scrubbed with t5 or carbon to get water clear, chroma is the easiest way though. D9 from thc always requires chroma unless you start from diamonds then you can just scrub it
Another thing, any cbd in the material will ruin your water clear
Quinone is super purple and even .1% will wreck color
If you distill crc without washing first you’ll get a weird color usually, this has happened to me 3/3 times i didn’t balance PH after crc before distillation
So take your crude. And bake it off, not full decarb but get off the initial volatiles. Basically dry the resin out if it’s full of solvent.
Then add hexane, pentane, heptane or similar non water soluble solvent.
Was it in acidic, then base, then neutral washes to remove the guns and similar stuff that locks up chroma columns.
Then when it’s balanced send it through magsil if you have pesticides or send it through silica 60 if you just need to strip it. Magsil will usually make the best water clear but when you’re done the ph will be fucked.
Anyways next take it back to washes and neutralize it.
Remove solvent.
Then distill. This process can yield like 97-99% d9 water clear. Part of this process was actually written back in the day in the shlussel key patent I wrote. This was the original 99% d9 process. I released this process a long time ago when I released the distillation key. This was actually the method patent that was written with the key.
