How to prepare Solid Alcohol Fuel

The method for preparing solid alcohol is not complicated, the steps are as follows:

Take 100g of 95% industrial alcohol, add 13g of stearic acid, heat and stir in a flask, maintain the temperature at 60℃, until the stearic acid is completely dissolved.

It takes about 40 minutes. Add 84g of alcohol and 2g of NaOH to another flask, and heat and stir at the same temperature until the NaOH is completely dissolved.

Then, mix the two solutions evenly while hot, pour them into the mold, and wait for them to cool naturally to obtain a uniform, almost transparent Solid Alcohol Fuel.
