Hi all. Im doing a STB using naphtha and hydroxide. Last night i used a separatory funnel to try and separate the layers. After so, about half of the naphtha came out afterwards. Now im trying to do a 2nd pull, but cant seem to get the layers to separate again.

Do i want to add more basified water or what? i know theres a basic rule. I estimate i added 2-3 liters of basified water+ 275 grams MHRB and about a liter or so of naphtha. Any ideas? I know theres a fix for it

Yes you need to add more base.

OK, so then my plan is to drain half my solution into another Milk jug then add maybe a liter or so of more basified water. crossing my fingers. dont wanna waste product u know

heres what it looked like last night btw
