jonclark Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Gammaco is a company which supplies most schools with chemical needs and lab equipment. This is a link to the chemicals they sell. http://www.gammaco.com/gammaco/product_list_sub.php?id=Chemicals Failing that try Philip Harris in the UK they do export,with prices which reflect that. Hope that is useful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TongueThaied Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Any of you anywhere in the country can go to the local secondary school and ask the chemistry teacher where the local chemical supply house is located. If you cannpt speak Thai, take a bilingual person and a local map with you, Get the teacher's mobile number. You'll be able to find everything you need (amonia, borax, sodium nitrate/nitrite, etc.).

psmiller Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I make natural soaps and use sodium hydroxide, which is widely available at most plumbing shops. KOH is a little harder to find and zinc, sorry no idea. Your best bet i think is the Chemistry teacher, as mentioned before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemstar Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I have bought KOH - Potassium Hydroxide from Apex Chemicals. www.apexchemicals.co.th. I dealt with Jira Tungvichitreak (Operations Manager) by email on [email protected]. He speaks excellent English and was very helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Next to and just past Ekamai bus station, just down from the BTS, is school supply shop. The lab supplies dept. has moved upstairs. They may have what you want and may also have a branch in Chiang mai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tri Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Next to and just past Ekamai bus station, just down from the BTS, is school supply shop. The lab supplies dept. has moved upstairs. They may have what you want and may also have a branch in Chiang mai. Anyone would know the website or telephone contact of their branch in Chiang Mai? ... or the shop name in BKK so I can search online. Thanks in advance!
