Using Nano Silver/Micro Silver in Formulas: Dispersion vs. Dissolution and Preventing Settling
Question
How should I incorporate `nano silver` or `Micro Silver` into a formula? Does it need to be dissolved, or should it be dispersed? What is the correct mixing procedure, and how can I prevent the powder from settling?
Answer
Regarding your question about dissolving nano silver paste, according to the information provided, nano silver (or Micro Silver) does not need to be dissolved in a formula to be effective. Instead, it needs to be dispersed throughout the formula. The anti-microbial and other effects come from the silver ions released when the nano silver is dispersed.
To use it, you should ensure the formula has sufficient viscosity to prevent the nano silver powder from settling. The method involves blending the powder thoroughly into the formula until it is completely dispersed. Heat can be used during this process, but it is not strictly necessary.
