It's a material used as a coating in a capacitor, specifically a "colloidal dispersion" that forms a thin film on surfaces such as glass. A graphite "paint" of sorts. The inner and outer layers in a capacitor can act as the plates. _________________ "I shall take from the foody people and give to the not-so-foody people!" ~ Muscular Beaver

I guess at this point, the easiest way to answer the question is to give you one of many links... http://www.achesonindustries.com/doc/pds/AquadagE.pdf _________________ "I shall take from the foody people and give to the not-so-foody people!" ~ Muscular Beaver

It's usually used in cleaning water, eg sewage or tap water . _________________ Clear ether!

Wikipedia wrote: This corrosive liquid is used in treating sewage and drinking water I never said it was added to it - you misread "cleaning" for "adding" methinks . As for what it is, well aside from the corrosive liquid bit above, it's a "Lewis acid", whilst its chemical forumula is FeCl3 (and that's without Wikipedia ). EDIT: Also see THIS ... _________________ Clear ether!
