Great video! I was hoping that someday you will make the electrolytic gold cell, but no so soon! Also, I'm a little worried that the titanium cathode will not work as expected, that's because titanium is way higher in the electrochemical series of metals, meaning you would need to supply additional voltage to force the gold in solution to precipitate in the titanium cathode, besides that, that electrolyte looks pretty good! I can't wait to see your next video, I'm sure you will get some shinny gold crystals for sure!
@SuperDavidEF
Жыл бұрын
I'm trying to figure out why sreetips is using a titanium cathode anyway. I thought from his other electrolytic gold refining that the gold precipitate is permanently bonded to the cathode. Why would a titanium cathode be used for precipitating gold?
@user-vk3fi4dm2d
Жыл бұрын
@@SuperDavidEF I was wondering the same, in his silver cell he uses a stainless steel cathode, maybe gold doesn't bind to titanium because of the titanium oxide layer that forms on its surface in such aggressive solution that prevents metal to metal contact? If that's the case, that possibly applies in the stainless steel cathode too, where the oxide layer is formed by the Chromium and prevents the silver from strongly binding to the cathode.

Question from someone with no experience, just thinking about a step in terms of physics. After SMB precipitation, you allow the solids to settle at room temp (depending on exothermic effect on temp). Would instead boiling the precipitant gold settle the solids better owing to decreased density of the liquid? Could this reduce waste from pouring off? I almost hate to ask this question, because I find the waste container refining vids incredibly satisfying.😂
