Does anyone know where I can buy some of this stuff, CONUS ?
I am trying to do some artificial aging of catalin brush handles that I am making.
thanks

At what concentration do you anticipate needing? Lab Safety Supply sells 5%, but only to businesses.
And for that, I have no idea. I was thinking to try and buy the strongest concentration I could find, but am having no luck.
Oddly enough, there are homeopathic solutions, though why anyone would want to ingest this stuff is beyond me.
I think they had it in 1 part per 100,000 as their strongest.

Are you aware of how toxic this material is in it's pure state or at high concentrations?
I will echo what others have said: just don't mess with this stuff, unless you happen to be a trained chemist with proper lab equipment at the ready. There's a reason chemistry labs have lots of safety equipment and procedures.
Black lights might accelerate the process too.Is it worth exposing it to a intense UV source without the phenol? A day or two being regularly rotated in front of a sun lamp might do it.

Probably not intense enough. Black light bulbs don't put out much more UV than a regular one, they just block all the other wavelengths.
Some types of tungsten lights put out lots of UV. When I was a photographer, and shooting items under incandescent lighting for long periods, we use to have to use sun block. But the tanning lamps should be the best.
