Dmt gone red

[captdan]

Hi I have just dug out on old batch and it’s turned into a red solid?
I did swap the container to a little plastic one. Did smoke a little but I’m feeling it’s a little off or me paranoid lol.

I’m thinking if it reacted with the plastic container being the finished product how pure was it?

If it did react with the plastic, i'd guess the most likely reason would be residual solvent.

It might have just oxidised or polymerised over time though.

Or something else i'm oblivious to and one of the more chemistry savvy nexians will mention soon

I once had a similar situation with a small amount of crystal, from what I read here in the Nexus, it had oxidized, (dmt n-oxide), or that I think about... here in the nexus you can read how to recover your free base, using zinc powder!

Plasticizer could leach out of the plastic and accelerate oxidation/polymerisation, I suppose.

navegandouniversos makes a great suggestion with the zinc treatment; a mini A/B would be a good way of cleaning up plasticizer-contaminated material anyhow, so if it's a significant stash that you have this process should prove worthwhile.
