Marshal, Thank you very much for the article. Here are some comments on the study. The sequence of events I as read them are: 1) 2 versions of silver nanoparticles were created. One using silver nitrate giving a range of particles from 2 to 18 nm and averaging 8.2 nm. This was called Solution

Can you specifically tell me what in that paper cannot be explained by the known actions under such conditions of: 1. Small amounts of silver nitrate or silver oxide combined with HCl and converted to silver chloride which precipitated out except for about .8 ppm. 2. The colloid aggregated

The paper specifically states for each test except 5 and 6 in my original comments that the silver nitrate derived nanoparticles were used so let's skip discussing silver oxide. 1) Figure 1(a) shows the composition of the silver nitrate derived silver nanoparticle solution. Figure 5 identifies

Marshall, You are correct, I meant Figure 4. I did try and learn something about X-ray powder diffraction but was not successful in the time I have. The numbers (111, 220) refer to planes of atoms in a crystal. I found the following interesting: http://prism.mit.edu/xray/BasicsofXRD.ppt But it

Well, I am planning on buying some HCl tonight so I can run the test properly and find out for sure. Marshall On 9/30/2010 6:09 PM, Norton, Steve wrote: Marshall, You are correct, I meant Figure 4. I did try and learn something about X-ray powder diffraction but was not successful in the

OK, I bought the HCl, and seeded a glass of 20 ppm EIS with a couple of salt crystals. I am now waiting for the silver chloride to settle out to finish the test. Marshall On 9/30/2010 6:16 PM, Marshall Dudley wrote: Well, I am planning on buying some HCl tonight so I can run the test
