Don't forget to check out our other channel found here / @tntomnibus
This was in the wrong archive so i reposted it - here is the recipe:
1,000 - 1,500 mL water - depending which version you make
300g Graphite
100g Gum Arabic
3mL Glycerine
1mL Oil of Cloves or 5mL Listerine
Hope you find it useful

This premise is being used in a new manner, in aircraft control systems that don't use wiring harnesses, but rather different voltages with different frequencies, in order to control servo actuated motors and so on. All these feature are incorporated within the skins and frames of several advanced weapons platforms. But Robs video show the simplicity of new emerging tech.

Yes your ink is by far the best!!! I have made my own and then I bought your ink.. Your older ink was not a large amount better than what I made.. But then you upgraded your ink and now it is incredibly AWESOME there is no other ink that compares to yours!

Thanks Robert. An idea: screen print a pattern of oblongs of one ink on a sheet. Dry it and screen print an offset pattern of a different ink on top. Each oblong of the second ink will overlap two of the first ink areas. Result: a series circuit of many junctions between dissimilar conductors suitable for experiments with the Seebeck effect. - high voltage thermocouples - thermoelectric generation

I am a bit of a watercolurist that also likes creating my own pigments. I was kind of hoping the lamp black I harvested recently was conductive, but apparently not. To give a go at the conductive ink I'll have to buy some powdered graphite or muck up a lot of pencils for the conductive ink, but sadly I will not be able to light up my paintings with my homemade black and greys.

Hi Robert! Need your help! I'm looking for an affordable way to coat a mosquito net with highly conductive ink layer so the fabric becomes conductive and can be used as a faraday cage... I'm totally lost on how to go about this most efficiency as graphene is extremely expensive here in mexico. You are the only person I know of that is likely to have an answer to this. Thanks so much i love your show! 🙏💙

Rob, Thank you for all of the unbelievably valuable info you have shared over the years. Where can I find the "schematic" for the printed pattern that will serve as the most conductive/productive atmospheric energy "siphon"? I remember watching your video from a while ago where you showed the high accumulation of this power using the graphene ink. I am wondering if you have found any more conductive ink patterns since, and or if you have come across anything else worth noting since. I would be willing to pay for such info and recently emailed your site. Thanks.

I noticed that the ink consistency is very liquid... and I need a heavier ink consistency... because I will use it for silk screen printing …. Will increasing the percentage of gum arabic make the consistency heavier without affecting the conductivity of the ink? How long does this ink remain usable? Does its conductivity decrease with tim?

Nice Rob Cheers! Can it be made to be less resistive than copper wire?
@guyteigh3375
@guyteigh3375 Год назад
The short answer is "no" because, other than super conductors and silver, copper is the best conductor we know of. Carbon is not a bad conductor but not a patch on copper. If you use a thicker ink (paint), then the resistance will decrease but you will not get (for a given cross section) a better conductor than copper. BUT - the same can be done with air float copper and silver, but I am not sure who to suggest you make these without using fairly hazardous chemicals (mostly nitric acid). Arguably - you could make colloidal silver - let the generator run indefinately and then evaporate away the excess water - and then add to a binder as the video I don't want to suggest how to process silver with nitric acid on someone elses video channels BUT if you are interested and search for how to refine silver, it is when you then precipitate out the silver by adding strips of copper that you get "silver foam / silver fluff / silver sponge" which is incredibly fine silver powder. You can then ALSO use clean iron and do the same again to remove the COPPER from the solution - you now have ultra fine copper powder too - which again can be used to make conductive paints. Commercial silver loaded paint is goppingly expensive - more than pure silver usually gram for gram - but home made can work extremely well and be (somewhat) more modestly priced. Most carbon conductive paint is really aimed at fairly modest current handling (LED's sensors etc) rather than trying to replace copper wire that needs to handle serious power.

@lisakingscott7729
@lisakingscott7729 Год назад
Does the grinder also make the graphite particles finer and thereby affect reduce the resistance compared to just mixing or blending? How would expanded graphite powder perform compared to graphite? Do you really want per mil, i.e. an imperial measurement? Surely per um / micrometre or mm / millimetre would be more useful? As the SI units of resistivity are Ω⋅m (Ohm metres), and the SI units of conductivity are S/m (Siemens per metre) metres would be best. In SI units this ink is 1.21 mΩ⋅m or or 826 S/m. Your ink would be 49 uΩ⋅m or 20.4 kS/m in SI units.

Question arises then does a carbon electrode during hydrolysis for hydrogen production also if used get slowly oxidised . Carbon rods are always the immediate items to use as electodes and we never think more about it.
