Welcome!
Hello, Danny2023, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Brianda and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Brianda (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:17, 4 April 2023 (UTC)

 * Hi. So my professor got this report and sent it to me yesterday morning. I went back in and changed the phrasing. The report you linked is from before I changed the phrasing. I changed it to "Making Höpfner blue pigment consisted of mixing a filtered solution of cobalt and aqua regina with tin. This solution was precipitated with potash, washed, dryed and then calcined in a crucible. Höpfner blue was mostly forgotten until the 1850s-60s when it was reintroduced as Cerulean blue."
