AC frequency is key here as voltage controls ion velocity and you want
that ion to get far enough away from the emitting electrode that it
doesn't just get sucked back on when the polarity reverses.
You also don't want them to move so fast as to make it to the other
electrode and get stuck there.
To do that at 60 Hz [60 cycles per second] takes over 1,000
volts...typically between 1,000 and 5,000 volts [instant death to the
careless]
For low voltage generators, 10 to 30 cycles per HOUR.
..not an easy thing to accomplish.
Voltage is nearly irrelevant.
Current density is key. [amperage per square inch of electrode surface]
e=i/r [Current=Voltage/Resistance]
Optimal max: ~ 1 mA per square inch
"Particles" are non conductive and form faster and bigger when ions are
in high concentration, super saturating the water in localized areas.
Avoid high concentration zones, especially at the surface of the
electrodes [Nernst Diffusion Layer] where even vigorous stirring will
not affect it.
" Agglomeration"
Since "particles" are only held apart by a very weak Vanderwaals force,
high velocity collisions will make bigguns outa littleuns...so don't
stir too fast or input thermal kinetic energy at too high a level.
The more "particles" per cubic inch, the more likely a collision.

HELP!!!! I am attempting to make my own “Nano particle colloidal
silver generator” for my own personal use. I have COPD (emphysema, &
asthmatic bronchitis) and wish to live another day...I have four
choices of voltage to make my own generator and would love for someone
in the know to advise me on a voltage choice.... constant voltage 9vdc
400 ma 3.6 watts......6vdc 300 ma 1.8 watts.....9vdc 300 ma 2.7 watts
and constant ac voltage 15v 360 ma 5.4 watts.....can anyone advise me
on selecting various powers as the product begin to perk
faster........I have heard that ac voltage makes for a more even
solution of particles, with fewer Ions...and the that the amperage is
better if kept low through out the process? What would be wrong with
starting with the highest and as the nano particles begin to
accumulate move to a lower voltage/ma, would that keep the particle in
the nano range? .....how about it? anyone?....thanks
