Description

thymolphthalein HIGHLY FLAMMABLE & HARMFUL, developed by sodium carbonate (Solid is IRRITANT – solution is LOW HAZARD) (or another base) Kristie Macrakis (2015). Prisoners, Lovers, and Spies: The Story of Invisible Ink from Herodotus to al-Qaeda. Yale University Press. ISBN 978-0300212600. The hotplate can be used on a low heat without the white tile, but it will have to be supervised as the paper could burn. It is safer to use a white tile on the hotplate to place the paper onto. It takes about 20–30 seconds on average on a low to medium heat setting for the message to appear. This means that a class practical could be carried out using a hotplate without congestion. John A. Nagy (2009). Invisible Ink: Spycraft of the American Revolution. Westholme Publishing. ISBN 978-1594161414.

It is 410BCE and the Ionian (or Decelean) war, between Athens and Sparta has been raging for four years. You have been tasked by King Agis of Sparta to develop a way of delivering secret messages to his armies, which would be unreadable if they fell into the enemies’ hands. You wonder if there is a way of writing with an ink that is only visible under certain conditions. Like all good science-artists, you decide to investigate further… Fluorescence is basically caused by a simple conversion of energy. The invisible UV light falls on the surface, it is absorbed, and it is re-emitted as light radiation, which is visible. The fact that the UV-visible ink has electrons that absorb the energy is what allows this to happen. Some inks glow faintly or fluoresce when under an ultra-violet lamp. This is a property of many substances, particularly organic substances and body fluids. Good results can be obtained from the heat method on milk, sodium hydrogen carbonate solution, vinegar (ethanoic acid), sugar solution and soapy water (sodium carbonate solution).The properties identified by the SOE could be discussed by students as to why they are important criteria for an invisible ink. These can be used with younger children but the chemistry is more complex so the theory is best left to secondary age students. Most of the inks that become visible when you shine an ultra violet light on them also would become visible if you heat the paper. Equipment: Copper sulfate, developed by sodium iodide, sodium carbonate, ammonium hydroxide or potassium ferricyanide. When developed the message should be visible and readable so students should be able to inform others of the message. The message is given to another group who develops the message and reports to the group on what the message said.

reporting on findings from enquiries and observations, including oral and written explanations, displays or presentations of results and conclusions; Potassium ferricyanide & phenolphthalein should not be used where there are naked flames (do not use Bunsen burners). Most invisible inks are made visible by heating the paper. Take extra care when heating the paper. An easy way to reveal these types of messages is to iron the paper gently. The paper containing the message can be placed onto a white (ceramic) tile and the white tile can then be placed onto a hotplate. This is a reasonably safe way to heat the paper without risk of burning and it works well to reveal the message. Phenolphthalein, commonly used as a pH indicator, turns pink in the presence of a base such as ammonia fumes or sodium carbonate. The ink can be later made visible by different methods according to the type of invisible ink used. The ink may be revealed by heat or by application of an appropriate chemical, or it may be made visible by viewing under ultraviolet light. Inks which are developed by a chemical reaction may depend on an acid-base reaction (like litmus paper), reactions similar to the blueprint process, or any of hundreds of others. Developer fluids may be applied using a spray bottle, but some developers are in the form of vapor, e.g. ammonia fumes used to develop phenolphthalein ink.M iron sulfate IRRITANT, developed by 0.1 M sodium carbonate, 1% starch solution (e.g. corn starch or potato starch), or by 0.1 M iodine solution

Some commercially available invisible inks glow very brightly, in a variety of colors, under ultraviolet light. This makes them suitable for use in readmission such as hand stamping.An UV pen, or UV marker, has fluorescent, yet transparent marks, which you can only see under ultraviolet light. The body is made of plastic usually, which is just like a regular pen. Inside, however, the ink is completely different. It contains a fluorescent that’s usually derived from things that glow when you expose them to ultraviolet light. This usually includes things such as diluted laundry detergent, as well as tonic water and vitamin B-12, which are dissolved in vinegar. ( 1) comparing and grouping together everyday materials on the basis of their properties such as solubility and transparency; building a more systematic understanding of those types of materials by exploring and comparing the properties of a broad range of materials;

At the other extreme, Mary, Queen of Scots (1542-1587), used invisible ink and ciphers to communicate with Catholic supporters. Her supporters wrote to her using two common substances: alum (hydrated potassium aluminium sulfate) or gall ink (tannic acid from parasitic wasps in oak trees galls). The alum letters would be developed by soaking the letter in water, and the gall ink would be developed by soaking the letter in iron sulfate solution. Rigden, Denis (2001). SOE Syllabus: Lessons in Ungentlemanly Warfare, World War II. ISBN 9781903365182.

The British SOE training manual used in the Second World War identified the following properties of an "ideal" invisible ink: Your message will be developed by spraying, wiping or painting the paper with a second chemical such as an acid.
