Thanks to everyone who has offered suggestions

on how to take care of this little dilemma.

 

I tried heating up my already prepared solution

to see if any changes would occur. It was very

interesting. I started over low heat and nothing

happened so I slowly increased the heat.

The mixture began to clear when the temp

reached just below boiling, and I'm starting

to feel success is close by. I guess I waited

a bit too long because incredibly quickly

the mixture returned to milk. Figuring I

must have exceeded some important

temperature threshold, I poured in some

room temperature distilled water. Zoom, the

mixture cleared right up! Viola, so I think.

 

As the mixture cooled completely,

it returned to milk. Not just cloudy, but

milky white. This is so weird!

 

I haven't wanted to go the alcohol route... will

consider it though. Any other suggestions on how

to make the PS-20/water/EO combination

work all by itself for a clear solution will still be

greatly appreciated.

 

I enjoy learning, and have lots of patience

 

Thanks very much,

Holly
