Hi,
[snip]
The fact that the hydrino gases can be liquified at LN
temperatures is very
significant for future hydrino chemistry, which may require purified
hydrinos of various p values, which may be obtained by fractional
distillation.

This may not be quite as easy as it sounds. In Hydrino molecules,
the protons
are closer together, which means the magnetic influence they exert
upon one
another is much stronger. I think this will lead to Hydrino
molecules clustering
together, and I would expect the boiling point to vary with cluster
size. In
short, fractional distillation may lead to collections of different
cluster
sizes as well as or instead of different Hydrino shrinkage levels.

An N=(1/2) Hy2 molecule should have atoms with about half the radius
of hydrogen molecule atoms, i.e. 0.32 angstroms. This gives a
nucleus separation distance of about 0.32 angstroms. The magnetic
binding energy of protons at that distance is below 10^-4 eV. I
expect the magnetic binding would be more of an electron shell thing,
a van der Waals force which is much larger due to the reduction in
scale of 1/2, and thus the molecule-to-molecule van der Waals force
would be about 4 times larger than ordinary at close range. The
molecule binding force for a cluster (I think) would scale as an
inverse of the 4th power, however, thus would about 16 times as large.
I think it would be a huge problem store or transport Hy2, even N=
(1/2) Hy2. With an atomic radius of 0.16 angstroms, it would diffuse
through glass or metal very rapidly. The electrons would not readily
be stripped from the molecule, so it would not be adsorbed in the
usual manner by losing its electrons to an ionic bond - it would
simply diffuse.
