finding d-limonene/orange terpenes etc. in the UK?

Migrated topic.
ebay. search for orange oil. Its commonly found as aromatherapy oil, essential oil etc, some listings even advertise the d-limonene, anything that says "cold pressed [or steam distilled] from orange peel/rind" is basically what you want. It aint cheap.

A lot of other aromatherapy shops sell it, but ebay is just the place Ive found the largest cheapest products, other shops only sell useless 10ml bottles...
 
i think my friend found some. hasn't received used it yet. will post vendor when confirmed all is hunky-dory.
 
I found a SMALL janitorial supply house in my small town that bottled their own cleaners and they had a product called gum and graffiti remover. The guy who ran the shop said they bought giant drums of d-limonene and just bottled it and sold it like that. I made sure there was nothing else in it, got the msds and confirmed there was nothing else it in, and proceeded to buy every bottle for dirt cheap.

I'm not in a very big town. I'm SURE it can't be that hard to find. Haha, everything "impossible" to find is usually hiding somewhere. I remember back in the day I was looking to react some GBL and needed Lye. Despite living in an Alberta "Meth Watch" community, I was able to talk the guy at a water bottling facility to give me some for a "chemistry lab I didn't get to do in class and would fail the course if I didn't finish". If all else fails, the internet is your greatest friend. Mother, Teacher... secret lover.

Anyways, yeah, good luck. www.greenterpene.com is expensive on international shipping, but still HAS it... you know? Better than petrol. lol.

...oh, i should mention... mine is technical grade. If you want food grade, a janitorial supply house is probably not the greatest place. Still, the msds says 95-99% pure d-limonene.

Can anyone confirm, that this really is safe to use? A vendor claims:

"100% orange oil, cold pressed and untreated"

SWIM was looking at that one!! THought it was well expensive...
SWIM got 5 litres of limonene for cleaning from mistral, for about £15. Dont know if one should use that for ingestible mescaline extract tho... I also ordered a load from ID Aromatics, listed as sweet orange oil, which swim reckons would be more suitable for ingestible extracts. Still much cheaper than £35/litre!
 
Tell me about it man! its a 1 off tho, and al be looking much harder for a better supplier
next time. tho im thinking it'll be worth it. i have been reading and dreaming about mescaline
longer than DMT.
Ahhhhh the things we do for love:wink:
 
Nice one Buster, really hope you enjoy your Mescaline :d

Can i ask where you are getting your starting material from?

I'm also gonna get my shit together and do a extraction. I've never tried it either :)
 
Hey there, sorry for starting up an old thread, but I guess it is better than making a new thread. :)

I am beginning to venture towards non toxic extractions, but am unsure about the levels of purity of d-limonene and how much purity matters. As I see it, you will be salting your alkaloids out of the d-limonene and as a result the purity of your limonene shouldn't affect the overall purity of your extracted alkaloids.

I have done some research and this d-limonene ebay seller seems to have a lot of information and a reasonable price.

But in the item description it says:

Product Information said:
Chemical composition

The main chemical components of orange oil are a-pinene, sabinene, myrcene, limonene, linalool, citronellal, neral and geranial.

Is this normal for d-limonene?
 
Any luck in the UK lately?

I have found one that looks ok but costs £142 for 500ml!
www.terpenes-uk.co.uk

D-Limonene (Natural)

Smells like sweet oranges. Has a very similar odor to orange flavoured hard boiled sweets. Can elevate your mood and also relieve stress.

This is £22.75 for same amount but doesn't say food grade and is not 100%
