    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

    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.

    If i was more of a gambler id wager the cloudiness of your solution was very fine silver chloride in suspension. Its so fine even slow lab filter paper doesn't easily catch it. I have better luck using the cotton ball jammed into a funnel method if filtration. The liquid of the solution wicks down the cotton fibers leaving that ultra fine particulate behind. If it was me before that though i would dilute it with water by a lot to ensure wll the silver was kicked kut of solution before filtration. Takes longer but makes for a cleaner initial drop. Cuts overhead costs in the end. My 2¢

    I’m using a “Gold Series” Ohaus 2000 gram capacity with 0.1 gram scale. Think I paid about $500 for it ten years ago.

    How does one get started with gold/silver refining. Where do you get your supplies? Do you have a chemical degree of some kind? Thanks!

    Is it not feasible to make a electrolytic gold cell identical to the silver cell? Stainless bowl acting as the cathode?
