To: [email protected] (Rob: Just a note - I tried to send a
short email of thanks to this address twice and both returned by
ISP.
Rob: Many thanks for an interesting and informative message. I am
accepting this as the final word on the subject as it is obvious
that this is a subject that you are very knowledgeable on.
I would appreciate if you could clarify just one thing for me; Your
quote is "Only use liquids for proton resonance experiements" yet
from the last line of your previous paragraph "...accept that the
crystal structure is different with parafins, .... water bonds
differently in ice." it seems that POSSIBLY solid paraffins would
work??? Or it probably is that this is just a subject of which I
understand virtually nothing.
I enclose a link below with some of my notes on various proton rich
substances, in case you had not previously noted it.
I suspect that your comment about water and alcohols being better
than paraffins (either liquid or solid) IS true but I am still
learning. The distilled water with 20% methyl was accepted by one
expert as the best compromise and that MAY be the answer.
BUT, at the moment, I am really attracted to some form of Amyl
Alcohol (probably 20% or so) with distilled water. It seems to me
that with a chemical formula of C5 H12 O this would be superior to
Methanol which is CH4 O. As near as I can see with Amyl we gain an
advantage of ADDITIONAL "H" molecules and cut down on the
paramagnetic "O" molecules. At the same time we should turn the
freezable water into a substance which remains liquid down quite a
bit below 0 degee C.
Kerosene has been tried and works alright. I THINK it polarizes
faster but the decay time is also faster. Patrick had a note about
this earlier and I will try to look for it right now. Do you know
the chemical formula for ANY brand of Kerosene???
I would appreciate any input as I just don't know anything and it is
obvious that you DO know a lot.
Best regards,
Dale
