Is "research chemicals" a euphemism or are you literally referring to chemical substances/precursors purchased and used by laboratories that are also available to the public?

    "Research chemicals" is a term used for new psychoactive substances that haven't been covered under any laws yet. They were called "designer drugs" decade ago, but that was bad PR.

    Chemicals substances and precursors are just called chemical substances or chemicals. You can order almost anything off of a laboratory store online and they'll ship most of it to you through the mail.
