Note thate ENEA with PdD proved the strong importance of crystalographic structure. One kind cause no heat, the other succed at 60%, and mix of two give mixed results... http://www.lenrforum.eu/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=674
It seems that DGT discuss of that, increasing the number of surface sites with less dense cristal... note also that article from AIP http://www.lenrforum.eu/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=758&p=2769#p2769 2012/12/13 Terry Blanton <hohlr...@gmail.com> > Defkalion actually alters the crystalline structure.
