Perhaps the chemists online can comment on this. Adding H2O2 to CS will form Silver Peroxide? I read that AgO is insoluble in water but will dissolve by adding some NaOH. NaOH is used to buffer Oxygen products like NaClO. Maybe, just maybe, adding a little bit of NaOH might help to buffer the CS? This is a stab in the dark so dont hate me if I'm wrong and do so at your own risk. -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
