Is it possible to make napalm without benzene? I honestly have never made napalm without benzene, and I don't want to waste supplies, so I'm hoping someone with experience could enlighten me on this subject?

On wiki it says that it looks like a white powdery substance similiar looking to rubber cement...I recently read jolly rogers Anarchist Cookbook, and immediately noticed the lack of benzene in the napalm recipe..who know maybe his method worked

the jolly roger uses petrol and polystyrene, the correct systematic name for polystyrene being poly-ethylbenzene.
so theres your benzene molecules as well as some ethene, also what have you been using as your benzene source if not poly-ethylbenzene

Dude ive found that just any form of styrofoam works, heat the gas on a hot plate on low and then just keep putting styrofoam into it until it is saturated.

You don't even need to heat it.

Stop playing stupid. I seriously doubt that you have benzene and that you used it in your Napalm-B synthesis. Seriously, this is such a stupid question. You're clearly just asking this to try to sound smart because it demonstrates that you looked up a napalm article on wikipedia.

Anyone who has made Napalm-B correctly, polystyrene added to low-octane gasoline + benzene, would already know that benzene is not a necessary ingredient when the purpose is to just light shit on fire.

Yeah, Chode pretty much called that one. Your average dipshit (that'd be you, OP) does not need to add benzene to synth napalm.

I honestly don't see what difference it makes if you simply want to set things on fire. However napalm burns hotter, longer and more persistently than just gasoline.

easy way is just soak styrofoam in gas over night and tada.

You can just stir half petrol and half soap shards, can't you? It sounds easier

if you want to make sticky gasoline, yes. if you want to make napalm, no. you would have known that if you read the top of the page... or any one of the many other threads on napalm.
