I'm looking to buy around 500ml to a L of concentrated nitric acid.
Before anybody asks what I need it for: it's to make aqua regia, and also for an experiment with the platinum group metals.
Name your price, also please note I can only accept your offer if you're in the United States. Shipping for the hazardous material overseas/border would be costly.
Don't you live in Houston? We are one of the worlds largest Chemical refining cities in the US. I think I did a search on KOH to find an electrolyte and many of the places that I found that would ship it were in Pearland.
Let me send an email off to the guy that sold me the KOH and see if he has your acid. I'll get back to you when I find out.

Hi Ultra7, thanks for helping me. Please let me know if you can find anything around here. I haven't searched the local area very much, but it's a good suggestion. Hey, on the by chance, are you still interested in a Houston teslathon?

Heh, when most people around this area hear the word "chemical" or "acid" they immediately think the worst. Oh, and let's not even get the police involved in this, they're just as bad as the moron across the street!

Yeah, I'm down for the Houston Teslathon, just work has been beating me down lately, and my Lady is pregnant. You know how pregnant women are, anything a man does that does not focus on the belly or the wee one inside is pointless, so I have not even had a chance to launch a rocket, much less work on a project.
The guy that had the KOH said to look up El Dorado Nitrogen, in Baytown, and gave me a link. They supposedly have a Nitric Acid plant down there.
