An improvised quick carbon arc experiment [result: inconclusive]

    • Official Post

    Ferromagnetic carbon grains are formed by (at least) long periods of electrolysis packed between lead electrodes using a sodium bicarbonate electrolyte. There may well be other methods of doing this too.

    This is a picture of the set up some years ago in my old lab space - running 4 tanks at once hunting for another effect.

    Thanks Alan Smith , I'll take this as a cautious yes! Got alkali electron donors, electrolysis, water, potential unstable isotopes, and carbon a recipe for something sparky from my current understanding. Have you checked for trace transmutation to other stable isotopes in the lead plates?
