Greg Ball said, "What is EIS?" Greg, EIS is a generic acronym coined on this list that means Electrically Isolated Silver. It has value for referring to silver preparations made with silver, water and electricity (as opposed to chemicals), but can equally apply to the brownest, coffee-colored preparations as well as the crystal clear stuff. Because it normally utilizes DC electricity, it is ionic. Because it makes silver particles that are suspended in water, it is also colloidal.
jr said, "Isn't an ion the result of an atom losing one of its electrons?" Losing or gaining. Positive or negative charge. Cationic or anionic. Because DC electricity causes the silver particles to sinter off the positive silver wire, attracted to the negative wire, our silver particles are always positively charged. __________________________________________________________ Find your next car at http://autos.yahoo.ca -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
