Thanks to you too Marshall.   Are you a chemist?
No an engineer, but have had 4 years of chemistry, and have studied it quite a bit beyond graduation.
why do you make 55 gallons (wow) of cs at a time?
I wholesale it in 55 gallon drums only to compounders. Do not retail it, do not advertise it. Keeps the FDA out of my hair when they are attempting to suppress the truth.

He is saying for a particular amount of silver, ions will present the most surface. An ion is an atom with one or more electrons missing (or added). A silver ion is 1.26 anstroms radius. A clump of atoms, that is a colloidal particle, will always have some atoms and/or portions of atoms which are inside the particle, and thus the surface area must be less than that of the disbursed atoms or ions alone.

Although the below statement is true, in that everything that comes off those electrodes is ions, some colloid is produced when ions convert to metallic silver with the addition of an electron to the ion -after- it leaves the electrode. Other colloidal particles are made as well...mostly silver hydroxide and some silver oxides. There is no question that silver ions kill germs or that ions present the largest possible surface area.
 There is no smaller "particle" possible.

Ode, What do you mean when you say that ions present the largest possible surface area? How big is an ion? How big of a surface area are you talking about? Are all ions the same size?

Thanks.
