    for epoxy resin (or any other more viscous fluids) try putting the setup on a high frequency vibrating surface. That can reduce the effective viscosity to whatever level, depending on the intensive of the vibrations. A DIY ultrasonic plate with one of those 40KHz piezos might be a fun project. A rigid plate with a speaker under it might also work.
    If this ends up working, it might be interesting to try this with a few pigmented epoxy mixes, and see the colours dragged along with the balls.

      But.. wouldn't the vibration help better mix the two ingredients, of the epoxy, and fasten the solidification? (I have no experience with epoxy)..
      Wouldn't it be better to use only one part of the formula and just add the second part at the end and.. wait for the mixing to occur.. or use vibration at the end to mix them?..

    Funny thing as soon as I saw it I had the same idea of yours: to try to do it with epoxy resin instead; the reason it does not work seems to be that the epoxy is actually conductive (I mean much more so than the oil, because of the free radicals reactions probably) but I've got you covered: Alkyd resins, basically highly unsaturated oil e.g. linseed oil plus a metallic complex that works as a hardener.
    Another method would be using melted paraffin instead of Castor oil (of course you would have to do the experiment with a heated bed but it should be easy to pull out this trick...).

    • @Basement-Science
      @Basement-Science 3 года назад +1

      yeah conductivity was my guess as well. I'd say try it with paraffin and just heat it with hot air. It might also just stay liquid long enough without re-heating. Not sure how clear paraffin can get even if you use pure clear stuff though.

Another thing that I thought of was to use spheres made out of low melting point alloy and as the electric current passes through them if they melt just at the right rate you could and up with a root like threads :-)

    I would like to see the long branch experiment done with ball bearings starting from both the cathode and the anode. I expect you would see the beads extending from both ends , just like how a Lichtenberg pattern forms on wood, with the ball bearings meeting up somewhere in the middle to form the path of least resistance. This may also extend the maximum branch length you can achieve.

    This what you show here, seems really much like that principle I described about oak and linden trees and their response towards high voltage and magnetic fields.
    this was a principle came to my attention after reading a book about how trees respond to magnetic influences by a biologist who had also specialized in druidism. back then I also worked with trees regularly, and high voltage as well. so that caused me to test the response of not only magnetic fields on trees, but also of the high voltage effects on trees. more recently I started looking towards the effects of magnetic fields on static electricity, and that showed that they seem quite much linked, this as well in the growth of trees so in simple terms: there tends to be either a stronger, or a weaker ionic energy on places where the earth's magnetic field lines are stronger or weaker, this depends on the polarity..

    Years ago, i spent many days on my porch staring at the trees in my front yard, and came to the very scientific conclusion(sarcasm) that the branches, similar to the little metal balls, branch out and grow into the troughs of an electromagnetic field. Also interestingly, i remember something about pointed tips being the best way for electrical current to pass mediums. Every plant, branch, leaf, tree terminates with pointed tips. Even more interestingly, their tree bark is similar to our skin, in that it is an insulator(electrically), while inside the tree, the carbon ect is conductive. I imagine its grounded in the earth, and through induction(idk if that's the right word) it is internalizing electromagnetic radiation from the shuman cavity(highly charged/ ionized layer of our atmosphere).
    I searched for research on this, and never really found anything detailed on this. But your video, seems to be showing the same principle.

    This is fascinating to me. I remember the Stanford video saying that there was a correlation between this phenomena and tree-branching? There really should be some deep underlying links between the biology and fundamental forces. I also wonder how some of the other systems of providing high-voltage DC would work for this.

    • @PlasmaChannel

      It's my suspicion that current is the limiting factor to make this work. Likely with a higher current power source, it could be made larger.

    Try using extra slow hardener for the epoxy next time. Also, you can thin it out with some solvent if needed.

    can you try using someting deeper and have the negative in the bottom using high viscous oil and really fine powder metal and also mixed metals. i read somewhere that silver makes simlar traces but in the ground.

    UV Resin can maybe help with the secure of the branches. It takes longer to harden out without UV light.

    Great Job Jay! At 6:41, do you think that the oil dielectric is just insulating charge (basic insulator) or does the dielectric provide in other ways that would take too much time to explain...and maybe creep outside the accepted "charge carrier" electricity theory?

  • @justinbanks2380
    @justinbanks2380 3 года назад

    I'm a bit late to this one again (gotta get better at that!)
    As others have suggested, possibly try a slow cure or UV cure resin to delay the time to cure to allow the chains to form. And as it seems that the conductivity seems to be an issue at the high voltages, if you used a different power source or experimented with voltage and current levels to see how each affects the speed of reaction in a test case in one of the oils, maybe you could dial in the best combination to lower the voltage or current, so they move in the epoxy, but not so low that the reaction doesn't occur?
    Also, as others have suggested, a slight vibration plate could help. (I would say a random orbit sander or reciprocating saw without the blade, make good cheap ones (people use with resins and silicones to get air bubbles out) but they might be too aggressive for this use case.
    All that being said, this video was awesome!!!

    • @justinbanks2380
      @justinbanks2380 3 года назад

      @@PlasmaChannel I just rewatched the video. Another idea I had for experiments with resin, if you figure out a voltage/current setting that works with resin, if going slow, you could do like you did in the beginning and move the ground closer to the positive (you did this with your finger in the video) to make the bearings move a bit faster/more. You could even do this by just moving the wire fence closer to the other side and as it grows move back to the far end
      Thought this might help if you find that the only way to make resin not become too conductive is to lower the voltage/current so far the effect doesn't work very well. Might be a way to get around that.

  • @jimkillough8340
    @jimkillough8340 3 года назад

    To preserve, perhaps try an appropriate UV activated Resin? Flashing it after completion of the experiment. The voltage may or may not cause the resin too activate though heating. We know that dental uv resins can stay in liquid state at body temperature. I suspect however the resin would impede current flow driving the metal beads to alter their polarity and form the chains. Good video, tickles the brain.

      @@PlasmaChannel it would be interesting to see if you could find an epoxy that isn’t conductive. I think the ball bearing traces would look pretty cool in resin. But I guess you thought the same hence why you tried it.
      Maybe some circuit board potting resin. I’m not sure if they make that in clear tho.

    I don't know how resistant waxes are but the high voltage would create a lot of heat right- I've been doing a lot of research into waxes with high temp melting point and when you asked if we had any ideas on how to create a "frozen picture" : Camphor Oil and carnauba a wax and camphore oil combo might work and just harden to a solid when done.
