Where can an average student with little to no budget find common chemical component for home use? The following table, compiled from an archive of old chemistry textbooks, lists the household equivalents of chemicals which would ordinarily need to be purchased in large quantity from a chemical supply house. While sources such as the "Anarchist's Cookbook" have given amateur chemistry hobbyists a bad name in recent years, there are many legitimate uses for the following chemicals: science fairs, homemade cleaning solvents (for silver and copper), ceramic glazes for potters, etc.
