SWIM was playing around with a salt water electrolysis of nothing(really, it was just salt water) and using different cathode metals.
He used a bass guitar string section made into a spiral as the cathode, and noticed some bluish green to bright green crystalline matter coming off the string.
Then, He realized that the string was nickel plated steel.
DID Swim make NiCl2?
He is gonna go take a look at these xstals and maybe do a Urishubra(spelling?) on some PN2P to get some amph, if they are the right ones.
Did a TFSE search and no results about electrolytical production of NiCl2, but he did use chlorinated water and lots of salt in the brine.
SO, are these xstals indeed NiCl2?
I will check back in the morning for answers, possibly have more info of my own.
Thanks in advance,
AUF
