Greg Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Does it matter if I use Barium Chloride anhydrous or Barium Chloride dehydrate for green star comps ?ThanksGreg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a_bab Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 None is good for the stars as BaCl2 is too hygroscopic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Posted October 5, 2016 Author Share Posted October 5, 2016 Was going to make barium and shellac stars with it. Thought that is a really nice deep green, from what I have read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeighborJ Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 The barium clorate pillbox stars use BaClO3 + 10% shellac. The chloride you asked about will not work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
