it is seen that the copper tubes are corroded from the outside , probably
due to the high temperature of the reaction.
As Jones says it is very likely that he copper (and steel) migrate from
the outside to the nickelpowder which is inside of the reaction chamber.
This would explain why a lot of Copper is found. I once noticed that when I
was using a copper vessel which was plated with steel on the outside that
the vessel got a copper coulor when it was accidentally heated to 300 C.
The heat releasing reaction from the Ecat looks like the effect which is
seen during the
use of Raney nickel ( or TiC WC and other compounds) in combination with
Mills catalysts and hydrogen. No transmutations are seen, only upfield
shifted
NMR peaks of the hydrogencompounds in the reactionproduct which have a very
narrow resonance peak.
This could indicate that these species have a low probablity to interact
with the environment after being formed, which is not at odds with the
hydrino concept.

Thank you for posting this but for the record, the conclusions of
Kullander
are wrong. Not just wrong but irresponsible and foolish.
First he says:
"Analyses of the nickel powder used in Rossi's energy catalyzer show that
a large amount of copper is formed."
The Facts: There is evidence of the presence of copper but that is all. If
it were formed by transmutation some of it should be radioactive. In fact
there is a mundane explanation for the presence of copper.
Sven Kullander considers this to be evidence of a nuclear reaction"
"For copper to be formed out of nickel, the nucleus of nickel has to
capture a proton. The fact that this possibly occurs in Rossi's reactor
is why the concept of cold fusion has been mentioned - it would consist
of fusion between nuclei of nickel and hydrogen."
The facts: Yes but if this were the case there would be a wide variation
in
the balance of isotopes. Element and isotopic analysis showed that the
isotopic analysis through ICP-MS doesn't show any deviation from the
natural
isotopic composition of nickel and copper.
The mistakes of Kullander are juvenile and silly. There is a mundane
explanation for both copper and iron so why invent a reaction that does
not
exist?
