im making a large leyden jar to be charged from a van der gaaf generator. does anyone know if i use spray adhesive on inner foil layer to hold it in place will it affect the way it works? or stop it working?
Spray adhesive helps to bond the foil layer to the glass jar, creating a conductive surface for the electric charge to accumulate. This allows the Leyden Jar to store and discharge electricity.
No, it is important to use a spray adhesive that is specifically designed for use with foil, such as a conductive spray adhesive. This will ensure a strong and reliable bond between the foil and the jar.
The spray adhesive should be applied in a thin, even layer on the surface of the foil. It is important to follow the instructions on the adhesive product and allow it to dry completely before handling the foil layer.
Yes, it is important to use spray adhesive in a well-ventilated area and avoid inhaling the fumes. It is also recommended to wear gloves and protective eyewear when handling the adhesive.
Yes, most spray adhesives can be removed with a solvent such as rubbing alcohol. However, it is best to test a small area first to ensure that it does not damage the foil layer or jar.
