   I have come to the conclusion that your conjecture........... =========================================== "The dynamic viscosity varies with the temperature above a baseline temperature, viscosity = (T-T0) -1.637 for H2O and viscosity = (T-T0) -1.623 for D2O; where T0 = 225.4 for H2O and 231.9 for D2O, both these values being close to the respective homogeneous nucleation temperatures. The exponents are close to the golden mean, (1+,5)/2 (= 1.618)." =========================================== .............that the viscosity vs temperature power is the golden mean is more than likely correct. I withdraw my previous suggestion that the power could be the square root of e. I must say that I find it rather spooky that both the Vesica Pisces and the Golden Mean should turn up in something so mystical as water.
   ...
   Frank Grimer Small point - when I ran the above excerpt through my spelling checker I noticed you had written "the the golden mean" instead of *the golden mean*.

   I just came across your wonderful web site. My interest is in the possibilities for clustered water. Can clustered water be achieved by any way other than a chemical or mechanical process? Thanks for your response. wagering -
   ...
   Please keep updating this site. I am sure it will serve as a very useful repository. I have already forwarded the address to many friends, and all of them loved it.
   ...
   Sure it evaporates, but temperatures raise as high as a 1200 degrees Celsius. So how water reacts? Does it stay waterdamp? Does water break up in OH- and H+?

   Hi, Thanks for a very interesting site, though it seems to be proving me wrong! :-) Here's why: I used water as an example of non-reduction in my class, claiming that the physical and biological properties of water cannot be shown as arising from its chemical structure.
   ...
   The powers for the temperature vs. viscosity graphs for H2O and D2O are not a whole lot different from the square root of e, the base of natural logarithms.

   I measured the capacitance of tap water (in a glas tube) as a function of temperature at a measurement-frequency of 3 MHz. I found that capacitance increases as temperature increases 20 to 100°C. I expected the opposite after reading this nice site.

   Hi, Martin, Thanks a lot for instant reply about my post.
   ...
   I did read that papers a few times. It is possible. However, my concern is why we can NOT get the clear "image" or structure of this kind of ice-like water. Another interesting thing is that people used STM to image Au(111) for a long time.
   ...
   But, nobody can give a atomic resolution of Au(111)STM image at open circuit potential or something like +200mV (vs.Ag/AgCl in Sat.KCl).
   ...
   I would think probably it is water which play some role at this situation. In our group, we got some images at that condition. Maybe, I can show you some STM images later. It is totally intriguing and quite making trouble with us. Thanks, maohui

   Hello, Awesome website and sourceful stuff. I have a question about electrofreezing of water.

   However, nobody can give a direct or clear image of this kind of ice structure at room temperature. Maohui UofG,Canada

   Hello Dr.Chaplin, Thanks for your very informative web pages. Our very small company has developed a device using electromagemtic fields and vortex action to alter the properties of water. It has demonstrated ability to remove contaminants, alter crystal formation of frozen water and affect plant growth rates. We do have some machines in commercial applications treating water prior to use and also wastewater.-with great success. The developer of this device is intuitively guided rather than through scientific education. (he is an expert water diviner also.) Because of this we do not have the scientific wherewithal or scientific proofs/explanations pertaining to our devices to be able to explain the what/where/why/how of what they do.

   Dear Dr. Martin, Many thanks for the prompt response. I have one more question: Compared with the Magnetic descaling devices, what is your opinion towards the electronic descaling ? Which produces a unique square wave current that sweeps all the frequency responses from 1000 to 12000 Hz at a rate of 20 times a second Thank you in advance and Best Regards! Ir.FredaLee FredaLee Useful - Tuesday, September 27, 2005 at 04:17:43 (BST) Martin replies: Some square wave devices seem to work in some geographical areas. It is best to check for local users. see also the page on magnetic descaling.
   
   Dear Dr. Martin, I am a Woman Engineer working in the field of environmental friendly water treatment and very interested in the water properties. Your web site is really helpful for me in in studding the water, especially the theory of water clustering. Would you please to tell me any relationship between the solvent power of water and it's structure of cluster. Thank you in advance and Best Regards! Ir.

   Does anyone one know where I can purchase "Turkish or Sufi or any kind of bioavailable water" for my home?
   ...
   Thanks for this resource. I enjoyed browsing your site.
   ...
   I appreciate the "easier introductions" but also have been plowing through the technical stuff. I am always amazed at the complexity and even controversy underlying the science of everyday physical phenomena.

   I am a tanner of leather and I believe that water-dipolar chemical structures such as water will form with ordinary surfactants, is the nature of the stabilizing thermodynamic forces behind helical coil polymers such as collagen and DNA and just as well for shoe-leather.
   ...
   Though this site is an extremely interesting ressource, I am missing links to physical properties in numerical format (i.e. optical dispersion)

   I found everything that I wanted to know about water, and then some! Great site. Olux A. Interesting - Thursday, July 14, 2005 at 17:57:26 (BST)

   I have found that adding a small quantity of penta water to ordinary tap water alters the "weight and feel" of it after 20 minutes or so - this is a kitchen sink experiment - I assume the tap water is changing structure? Does anyone know how/how much to add to a garden pond and what the effects might be? geraldine Interesting - Wednesday, June 22, 2005 at 12:35:57 (BST) Martin replies: I believe you need enough to keep the fish wet.

   I came across it while writing about the film "What the Bleep", which homes in on the claims of Dr Emoto that water can be influenced by thoughts (!), and offers as evidence some pictures of ice crystals.

   Martin replies: I took it out as readers were confused by the cartoon; I have put it back for you here.

   Assuming that your guest book also serves the role as discussion forum, here is a Query (candle) for ongoing consideration: There seems to be anecdotal or loose evidence connecting the physical properties of: 1) expansion on freezing 2) diamagnetism 3) electrical conductivity & perhaps even eventual superconductivity (local or bulk), especially at elevated pressure. Helium, bismuth, and water are partial examples for what could possibly be an underlying tendency towards these traits, derived from nanostructure, one might surmise. --------------------------------------------------
   --------------- In trying to find a reference for the electrical conductivity of 4 degree water, the following carefully researched article and charts appears to negate the possibility of anything unusual in water: http://www.thorntoninc.com/pdf files/tech pubs/ECS 04.pdf .....as the conductivity of water rises steadily, though not linearly from 0 to 100°C, even though the differential change is greatest at lower temperatures. However, no real effort seems to have been made to look for small variations around 4 degrees, nor to look at the detailed effects of applied pressure on electrical conductivity. I wonder if you know of any contrary or more detailed evidence than this study provides - especially where the readings were taken at very close intervals - perhaps in fractional degrees around the important 4 degree mark?

   Thanks for a very interesting and useful site. I am a cancer research scientist. Based on your research and theory, I think that the level of clustered water may be different between normal cell and malignant cell. I would like to use clustered water for cancer prevention researc
