Merely a thought as I was browsing McMaster's, what about using graphite as an electrode? It shouldn't react with most electrolytes. I wonder if it would be possible to powdercoat cheap metal sheets...

Merely a thought as I was browsing McMaster's, what about using graphite as an electrode? It shouldn't react with most electrolytes. I wonder if it would be possible to powdercoat cheap metal sheets...
Preliminary experiment results:
Unknown alloy aluminum, Epsom salt(MgSO4) @ around 1.5 cups/gallon, and dumb car charger @ 12v/6A settings (the system pulled <2A and ran at 15-16v)
Anode is heavily...
That is a viable option, but be sure to use parts that can withstand it.
Nope.
1) Always. 2)Yes, depending on the acid.
Other way, pH drops in acidic solutions.
Oh dear God. NO.
Both fluorine and chlorine would react with the metals in the engine system, it will even react with your catalytic converter. Some may escape unreacted, but enough to kill you? Who...
^^^This guy is living proof that salt works, take note.^^^
As it should. Just don't always use it since the dissolved minerals will eventually build up and you will need to clean it. Just use some...
Myth Busting:
Chlorine gas: This doesn't happen when you're trying to split water. Ever. All because the ions they split into only act as charge carriers.
It does not matter in the least...
Ok, I'm amazed that I have to do this in my first post/comment, but wow, chemistry sure isn't a strong suit here is it?
Hi buddy, I'm here to help!
