Blork's Propylhexedrine HCl Tek 1.0
Hello! Before we begin you should know this is a tek requiring lab equipment that can be a bit pricey for some. However, I assure you, if you follow my steps you will end up with beautiful 90% + pure and efficiently extracted Propylhexedrine HCl which can be taken orally and vaporized. As I discover easier/more cost effective ways to complete the objective this guide will be updated. Here is what the final product should look like when scraped off,

Objective: Converting propylhexedrine freebase into HCl salt and removing the menthol and lavender oils from the Benzedrex cotton to yield propylhexedrine crystals.
Materials:
- 4ml of 12 M Hydrochloric acid (12 M is 32-36% concentration, do NOT inhale HCl fumes, handle with care).
- 1 Erlenmeyer flask 500ml (The solution will be made in here but do not apply heat to an Erlenmeyer flask).
- 1 Florence flask 500ml (This is what the solution will be poured in to evaporate faster on a hot plate).
- Electric hot plate (Isopropyl alcohol is flammable and must be boiled away in a well ventilated area).
- 1 Rubber Stopper (Propylhexedrine freebase is volatile which means you lose product while the cotton is exposed).
- 1 500ml Separatory Funnel (This will be used in the process where the lavender and menthol is removed).
- 50ml of VM&P Naphtha
- 6 Benzedrex Cottons.
- 100ml of 70% Isopropyl Alcohol.
- Safety Goggles
- Latex Gloves
- 300ml of distilled water.
- 1 Plastic Funnel
- Beaker
- Pipette
Procedure:
- Warm up 200ml of distilled water and pour it into your Erlenmeyer flask.
- Cut up the 6 Benzedrex cottons and add it to the Erlenmeyer flask.
- Add 100ml of 70% Isopropyl alcohol.
- Place rubber stopper on Erlenmeyer flask and shake vigorously for 15 minutes.
- Bring another 100ml of distilled water to a boil and pour it into the Erlenmeyer flask.
- Put the stopper back on then shake vigorously for another 15 minutes. The cotton should be clumping together.
- Remove the cotton clump and squeeze out absolutely every last bit of liquid into the Erlenmeyer flask.
- Add 4ml of 12 M Hydrochloric Acid (A dense fog will rise, do not put the stopper on the flask during this.)
- Gently mix the contents of the flask for about 5 minutes.
- Once the fog is gone place the stopper on and wait 1 hour.
- Pour 250ml of the solution into your 500ml separatory funnel, make sure it is closed.
- Pour 50ml of Naphtha into the separatory funnel then close and shake for 5 minutes.
- Let settle for 20 minutes while the Naphtha will rise to the top while the solution sinks to the bottom.
- Turn the stop-cock and isolate the solution into the Florence flask taking care not to get any Naphtha in it.
- Repeat step 11 using the same 50ml Naphtha already in the separatory funnel.
- Repeat steps 13-14 then place the Florence flask on the hotplate at medium heat.
- Allow the hotplate to boil away most of the water but leave some to avoid burning the HCl salt.
- Pour the solution into a glass dish with a big surface area.
- Allow the solution to dry completely in the sun.
- Scrape the crystals at the bottom and enjoy!
Warning: HCl crystals will be more potent than the cotton due to a more accurate dose so start with around 100mg orally. Do not flush used Naphtha down the drain, store somewhere safe.
