Some considerations for proton rich substances: The proton bearing
liquid must
have a high composition of hydrogen atoms and its relaxation time
should be such
that the signal to noise ratio is large enough at the end of the
measurement pe-
riod; but not too long or the polarization time would be
inconveniently long. The
proton liquid must be able to withstand adverse conditions ... 60 C
to -20 C...
If the liquid is frozen, NOT ONLY IS THE SIGNAL LOST, but the
resulting expansion
may burst the encapsulation. ... Methyl alcohol best compromise...
or .... (See
Posting # 8
.
Why is the signal lost when the liquid turns to a solid? It will
still have the
same number of Hydrogen atoms!
Does this mean that if for example, solid paraffin is suitable in
all other re-
spects, that it will NOT work because it is a solid?

"Chi." is the constant that tells us how sensitive the proton rich
substance
is.(JAK - Posting # 90) PRESUMABLY, distilled water, with no
dissolved oxygen,
has a rating of 1.00.
*Meth/Water was selected by one knowledgeable researcher. It
consists of dis-
tilled water and 20% methyl Alcohol along with ferric nitrate in the
amount of 10
to the -17 gm mols per liter. This solution is four times faster
than pure methyl
alcohol. (See Posting # 88.)
Basically the table is taken from Jim Koehler's manuscript with some
possibles
added and a tiny bit of information added. Unknown to me was the
fact that Etha-
nol and Ethyl Alcohol are the "same" thing. Same thing for
Methanol, but this is
complicated by the fact that for some of the above items I have now
found as many
as 3 or 4 different formulas. Any help on this table will be
GREATLY appreciated.
Some additional considerations regarding proton rich substances;
magnet wire and
liquid filled coil forms:
From Posting # 91. Very great care must be taken in both choosing
construction
materials and avoiding accidental ferro-magnetic contamination. An
invisible iron
filing will cause the signal decay TO BE REDUCED BY A FACTOR OF TWO
OR MORE. The
winding wire should be as pure as possible. Undoubtedly the failure
of some coils
is due to the few parts per million of iron in the copper
wire....metal inclusions
can occur in plastic piping... ...particularly true of recycled
plastics. It is
also possible that coloring materials used in the plastic contains
iron minerals
which will degrade performance.
How can we check for this? Would one of the small $200 - $300
Gaussmeters work
for either or both of the above problems?
Posting # 91 continued. Free oxygen in solution is paramagnetic:
free nitrogen
is not. Dissolved Oxygen... Some sensor coil forms e.g. POLYTHENE
(sic?) are po-
rous to oxygen and the liquid will again slowly take up oxygen from
the atmosphere
so that after about 7 days the signal decay has shortened again.
Is it really "polyethylene" in the above quote or is there a
"POLYTHENE" that I am
not aware of? Can we not coat these inferior plastics with some
impermeable sub-
stance?
For most of the items above, I am working with things I know little
or nothing
about. Therefore there will be typographical and other errors.
Confirmation of
any detail, however minor it may appear, corrections and additions
will be greatly
appreciated. For "bits & pieces" you may wish to E-me off forum to
avoid clogging
up the forum with seemingly unrelated "one liners". I will update
the document
and repost based on the new information. My address is
[email protected].
Best to all.
