The method of lead vinegar

Lead vinegar has a method of making it, which is related to the wonders of chemical industry. Lead is heavy in quality and stable in nature, and has its unique use in the process of metallurgy. To get lead vinegar, first take good lead, clean it of dust and impurities, and melt it to make it melt.

When melting lead, the fire needs to be moderate, the temperature is high and the lead is easy to disperse, and the temperature is low and the melting is not smooth. When the lead liquid is pure and clear, pour it into a special utensil and let it cool slowly. Then, mix it with acetic acid. The nature of acetic acid is strong and can melt lead. When the two meet, they are like yin and yang sympathetic, and gradually change.

When blending, you must add stirring often to make the reaction uniform. Over time, lead gradually dissolves in acetic acid, its liquid color changes, and its taste is different from the past. The key here lies in the control of temperature and the observation of time. If the temperature is too high, acetic acid will easily escape; if the time is too short, the reaction will not be complete.

Wait for the reaction to reach a good state, let it stand to precipitate, remove its dross, and leave its clear liquid. After evaporation and concentration, the liquid will gradually thicken, and finally the essence of lead vinegar will be obtained. The use of lead vinegar in medicine and work has its own effect. Doctors use it as medicine to treat some diseases; workers use it to help make all kinds of products. The art of making lead vinegar has been passed down from generation to generation, relying on the wisdom of predecessors and the diligence of future generations, so that it can be continued and refined.
