Re: Heavy Water Electrolysis Deuterium Source
I assume the ml/min figures are for STP. If it is then 25ml/min STP would be more than enough.

Yes Richard,
you are right, at STP conditions.

Re: Heavy Water Electrolysis Deuterium Source
Hi guys,
I have sent an email a while back to UN, to ask them if they can provide a certificate.
Here is their reply:
"Yes, we can provide certification un request.
We supply Heavy Water to most Universities and they also require purity certification and ACS traceable certificates for their analysis and work.
Certification is available for any of out Reagent chemicals."
I haven't got a reply from Wilmad-Labglass yet.

Aldrich will supply Deuterium Oxide Ultra - D at 99.999 atom % isotopic purity certified ( cat ref 61.340-1 ) -- $120 for 10g
But Richard is correct - Palladium foil is the best drying filter/barrier but it takes a very long time for the D2 to permeate. It works better with a heated foil. Was used in;-

image one.
The pallidium foil is the sealed filter in photo on the left calibrated electrolyliser. This calibrated tube ( 1ml syringe ) allowed gas transfer volume to be measured. The Oxygen side recorded the total O produced and was proportional to the total gas ratio at one bar.
The amount of gas needed for a Fusor is tiny

Re: Heavy Water Electrolysis Deuterium Source
Looks nice. How fast did the D2 penatrate the foil? how thin was the foil?

Re: Heavy Water Electrolysis Deuterium Source
sorry for delay Andrew - I only get on at week ends now. Foil was hot rolled down from a 0.1 mm foil to about 0.005 and Indium soldered on to a SS ring washer then sealed in the plastic tube, but it took forever for the D2 to permeate the foil at 1 bar - the D2O had a bit of Sodium added and was electrolyzed at atmosphere. It would be better with the foil hot and the pressure higher - but how? This was a high school project and on a very small budget.

Re: Heavy Water Electrolysis Deuterium Source
I upgraded this superb thread to a "FAQ".
Now a Simple search of "FAQ" in "titles" only within this forum will bring up this prime discussion on heavy water electrolysis.
