Evaluation of the Crystal and Particle Characteristics of the Biofield Energy Treated Antimony Metal Powder

Evaluation of the Crystal and Particle Characteristics of the Biofield Energy Treated Antimony Metal Powder

Materials Science, Metals

Antimony has many applications in metals, electronics, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals field. In this study, the influence of the Trivedi Effect®-Consciousness Energy Healing Treatment on the physicochemical and thermal properties of antimony powder was evaluated using sophisticated analytical techniques. The test sample antimony powder was divided into two parts. The control sample did not receive the Biofield Energy Treatment, while the Biofield Energy Treated sample received the Trivedi Effect®-Consciousness Energy Healing Treatment remotely by a renowned Biofield Energy Healer, Gopal Nayak. The powder X-ray diffraction peak intensities of the treated antimony were significantly altered ranging from -34.44% to 22.53% compared to the control sample. Similarly, the crystallite sizes of the treated antimony were significantly altered ranging from -0.3% to 96.44% compared to the control sample. However, the average crystallite size of the treated antimony was significantly increased by 45.96% compared with the control sample. The particle size values in the treated antimony powder were significantly altered by 39.79% (d10), -3.03% (d50), 4.12% (d90), and 3.49% {D(4,3)}, compared to the control sample. Consequently, the specific surface area of the treated antimony powder (0.693m2/g) was significantly decreased by 35.83% compared with the control sample (1.08m2/g). The Trivedi Effect®-Consciousness Energy Healing Treatment might have generated a new polymorphic form of antimony which would improve the appearance, shape, powder flowability, and thermal stability compared with the untreated sample. The Trivedi Effect® Treated antimony would be more useful for designing better pharmaceutical and cosmetic formulations, i.e., antimonials (emetics), meglumine antimoniate, antiprotozoal drugs, anti-schistosomal, veterinary preparations (anthiomaline and skin conditioner in ruminants), nourishing or conditioner of keratinized tissues. It can also be useful for the heavy industries for the production of alloys, solders, electrical cables, fire retardant, bullets, plain bearings, microelectronics, etc.
