Hi! thank you for an interesting site reference - it prompted me to ask the question : Are opaque plastic bottles okay for storing cs? I've had advice given me that; 1. the static of the plastic attracts silver mollecules and they adhere to the sides of the bottle 2. that the positive properties of the plastic repel the silver mollecules ???!!!! I'm not a techno/chemico fundie, as you may have gathered, hence the call for help!!!!

Although there are many; sites available for useful information; both technical and general, here is a url that will give you a basis familiarity with the substance, plus some of its applications. http://www.jovo.com.hk/cs.htm This is a site dedicated to one of our recently deceased Dutch friends. I hope the information is an aid to you. Sincerely. Brooks Bradley. Jeffrey A. Madore wrote: > Hi all. My name is Jeff and I am new to the silver list.
