Anomalous Water and Other Polymeric Materials

The purpose of the research is the production of anomalous material prepared from water and anomalous materials prepared from selected organic compounds in amounts sufficiently large to enable their characterization, and to permit an assessment to be made of the technological utility of the anomalous materials. An integral part of the research was to determine the nature of a water-soluble fraction in glass and to test if all detectable water-soluble material could be removed from capillaries. The residue from the water used for each wash was retained separately for analysis to determine the elemental composition. A material, synthesized in the laboratory and likely to be sodium methyl carbonate was identical to a material isolated from glass by extraction with methanol. This material exhibits unusual chemical behavior which can help explain some of the anomalous behavior of the material called anomalous water.
