Polywater: Polymer or Artifact?
Abstract
Several polywater samples were prepared by the standard methods and have the same physical and spectroscopic properties as those made in other laboratories. However, a variety of chemical analyses show high concentrations of impurities which may account for many of the anomalous properties.
