Yes, "technically" an ion is a particle as it takes up space and has
mass, but it's a technicality often used to confuse more than inform, so
you get people asking things like if this process makes smaller ions.
In common usage *CS* is a blanket term that allows all sorts of things to
fit so long as any part of it fits the definition, even if it's the
smallest part.
[There IS no smaller part than an ion of silver and if it gets smaller it
isn't silver]
Hence the coinage of the term "EIS" [Electrically Isolated Silver] but not
yet in common usage.
Imagine that you were shopping for an out building and wound up paying for
a sky scraper with dog house sized doors.

ION; An atom that has lost one of its' electrons.A silver ion expressed as
Ag+ indicating that it has lost one electron,and is water soluble,and will
stay in solution indefinitely.The ion is still classified as a particle.
End of quote.
My experience ; one of my first batches [many years ago]was put in
glass,lidded, and placed up on a shelf in my work-shop and it still has
not changed,still in full solution,no plating,no settling out, with
Tyndall effect.
