Hi Dan. Thanks for that information. I was using (and have been, for years) a term that is used in my CS manual for describing the process by which silver particles leave the electrodes. Oddly enough -- when I Googled it, they didn't even have that word spelled that way. They have he word *sinter* -- and it does have a different meaning, you're right. I will check a dictionary as well.
So -- OK -- large particles of silver aren't disseminated (howzat?) from the electrodes *as* large particles, but the rapid dissemination results in agglomeration which becomes large particles. Right? MA ----- Original Message ---- > From: Dan Nave [email protected] > > First of all, "scinter" or "scintering" is the wrong word for what you > are trying to describe.
