Have you been modelling this? Very interested in seeing the data if so, it is one of the big parts of the ΔT, it would be nice to see how far it is possible to reduce it. I tend to agree on the idea of compound being somewhat irrelevent, having seen some results using motor oil or even water not substantially different from say Arctic Silver. Do you mean particles or actual molecules?
