Pink Naphtha

[Orion1]

Hello can anyone suggest a reason why my naph goes pink sometimes, not every time but sometimes and i cannot figure out what it is. Is the tempreture of the naph important?
thank you

Your naptha has something dissolved in it. Did it start off pink? What equipment are you using? What other ingredients did you use up until the point that it turned pink?

no i was first use clear naph, i have made white, green, yellow, and now pink crystals, or somehow my naph is picking up solution and holding in it for days and weeks, i set the solution one week ago to a ph of 12.5, does the amount of time as a caustic base matter? my next batch the first naph went pink then from second pull on it has been clear and clouds instantly when blown on?

going crazy!
cheers for your reply

[It's naphtha, not naph. Please avoid slang on the DMT-Nexus.]

To the color it sounds like you have impurities in either your extraction or chemicals. Providing more detail, e.g. brands of chemicals used, will help us help you.

What brand of naphtha are you using?

I got naphtha once that was pink and definetly not naphtha . It had a very weird chemical smell. Chose Never used it even with evaporating the strong chemical smell never left . Bad batch I guess
