Hi Julius. I suspect the 3 second polarity change is causing the time extension. Try 30-45 seconds, that should speed things up. What are you using for striring?

Greetings to all, I am trying to produce ionic silver of the best quality & am having great difficulty in the time required to make a 10ppm solution. It seems too much long. I am using a 100mA transformer with a 30v DC supply & sheet electrodes of about 6 sq. ins on one side of one electrode. Naturally I use 2 electrodes of the same size. To emulate some of the manufacturers who are on the Internet I am using current control at 10mA & polarity change at 3 second intervals . Polarity exchange seems to have been the main cause of the time extension. Current control is based on about 0.8 mA per sq. inch of both sides of the one electrode. I am using polarity change because of the lack of sludge . Using distilled water as a starting point it can take up to 24 hours to reach this level. Using a starting solution of one litre, a quart, with the addition of 10% of a 10ppm ionic silver solution this time is cut down to about 12 hours. A clear solution is obtained & measured with a Hanna PWT meter. My feeling is that I must have made an incorrect assumption of one or more of the parameters so I would appreciate informed & practical advice. Direct access is at ju...@cybersmart.co.za & I am most happy to hear directly from anyone. Regards to you all. Julius Kabrun -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
