Making Gallium Crystals at room temperature. First time too much of Gallium solidified, therefore the second attempt was made. By cooling container from one side and adding small piece of Gallium at beginning it was possible to create a starting point from which large crystals were growing. Result was spectacular since different types of structures were made.

This channel is a hidden gem. from magnetohydrodynamics to growing crystals!

Looks like an alien landscape!!! Well done!!

I found sticking a hard piece into the gallium can help a starting point

@MHDTechnologyLaboratory 4 года назад

Yes. Such little seed crystals are also used in industrial crystal growing techniques.

I have some gallium, and thats how i do it too

@ThePeterDislikeShow Год назад

Is there a way to stabilize them afterwards to keep it from melting again? Maybe add another metal to amalgamate it into a solid metal?

@safepancake7551 11 месяцев назад

just keep them cool and not in a hot room and they'll be fine. unless you live in the tropics without AC you'll be fine

@ThePeterDislikeShow 11 месяцев назад

@@safepancake7551 Sure but I was thinking of making jewelry out of them. There has to be a metal you can add to the final crystal to amalgamate it into a solid alloy.

@safepancake7551 11 месяцев назад

@@ThePeterDislikeShow there might be such an alloy but if you add another metal to it, it will probably interfere with the crystal formation, and it will also then melt at a much higher point which then kinda makes you think why not just use a different metal with a higher melting point

How do i make gallium

@mars4ever 4 года назад

You can't "make" it, it's an element! You can buy up to 1 kg bottles from some websites, I have one.

@mariakozachek6643 4 года назад

Take a star and make it explode into a supernova, you'll get lots of elements, among them some gallium. That's one way at least. If you are interested where to obtain it, I believe you can order some from Amazon.
