See if the formula for this is on the Bostick & Sullivan web site.

Just by mixing ammonium oxalate and Ferric oxalate. And if you don't have Ammonium oxalate , by mixing first Ammonium carbonate and oxalic acid.
I have a formula somewhere in my lab note book , as I used to make some but I have to find it. But some one maybe have the number under his eyes.

It's probably more cost effective to buy Ferric Ammonium Oxalate rather than make it. I sell 1000g of FAO for $58, while the same amount of Ferric Oxalate will run you $350.

Thanks for the replies everyone...nze....I don't have ammonium oxalate, but I do have ammonium chloride and oxalic acid...any chance I can work with this?
