The fact they found evidence of Iron Microspheres in the dust ( R.J Lee)
They also found a large amount Mineral Wool in the dust. That came from the fireproofing, so did the iron spheres. The iron spheres were made back in the seventies and were trapped inside the fireproofing just like the mineral wool. The iron spheres and the mineral wool were released when the building collapsed.
That is a rational explanation. Your nanopaintchip theory is not.

Inert atmpsphere is not needed. Thermite possesses its own oxygen supply. What do you think will adjust by burning in open air?>
If it doesn't burn in an inert atmosphere then it's not thermite by your own reasoning.
External oxygen also gives a false calorimeter reading.
It's almost as if the analysis is deliberately misleading to fit a pre-conceived agenda?
Again you omitting all the scientific evidence demonstrated in the Harrit Study.
There red/gray chips ignited at 430c temperature and ran wild and produced Iron molten Microspheres.
They're not a known paint
can form Molten Iron Spheres at 30 percent of expected temp to melt Iron.
The debunkers have shown not one real experiment when you heat up paint chips, their Iron spheres forming on the burned chip later.

Burning Methods (external ignition)
Burning Paint Chips #1. www.metabunk.org...
I bashed off a bunch of pain chips from my red painted steel wheelbarrow and waved a butane flame over them. Result = iron microspheres
Here's a scale comparison with the Harrit microspheres (left) and mine (right).
Of note, in both their photos and mine the red layer appears undamaged. Curious, since that's supposed to be the one that's nanothermite. What seems to have happened is the iron oxide layer has "burnt" (perhaps with some of the paint, of some intermediate layer), and created some iron microspheres.

All processes that are not exclusive or conclusive to something being thermite.
Is it false regulate thermite Fe2O3 + 2 Al ignites around 4000F with a magnesium igniter? Can you cite a source at what temperature nano thermite of Fe2O3 + 2 Al ignites?
They're not a known paint
Based on what.
You

I would think anything burning in an oxygen atmosphere containing small iron oxide particles which are found in paint would make iron spheres. The whole surface area to material ratio thing.

Harrit found nano-thermite.
Base on what property or results that could only be caused by a thermite reaction?
Again
What do you not get what was burnt by Harrit was not thermite.
The chips did not burn in an inert atmosphere. The chips had inconsistent kilojoules per gram. To quote pteridine, “ note that two of the chips, #3 and #4 have far more energy than if they were 100% thermite. “
Exactly what properties of thermite did Harrit’s/ Jones chips have?
I guess the better question would be, “ Exactly what properties exclusive to thermite did Harrit’s/ Jones chips exhibit? “
Lots of processes can make micro iron spheres. Making iron spheres is not exclusive to burning thermite.
Lots of reactions are exothermic. An exothermic reaction is not exclusive to thermite.
Only if Harrit / Jones showed the paint chips could burn in an inert atmosphere. Makes you wonder why the results of such a test that would prove beyond a doubt the paint chips could sustain a thermite reaction were never published. Strange.
Show me just one experiment when paint chips are burned to 430c,
An analysis of the DSC data in the Herrit-Jones paper
By pteridine

Based on this figure, we may approximate the following theoretical and measured energies:
Not measured in this experiment:
HMX = 5.5 kJ/g
TNT = 4.5 kJ/g
TATB = 4.1kJ/g
Thermite = 3.9 kJ/g
Measured in this experiment:
Chip #1 = 1.5 kJ/g
Chip #2 = 2.5 kJ/g
Chip #3 = 7.5 kJ/g
Chip #4 = 5.9 kJ/g
The first thing we notice is the wide disparity of values for the “highly engineered” material. This should raise doubts as to sample collection and preparation and even if the materials are the same thing. By other analyses, they appear similar.
Now we note that two of the chips, #3 and #4 have far more energy than if they were 100% thermite. They also have more energy than any of the high explosives or any combination of thermite and any high explosive as a composite. Arithmetically, if we have a 50:50 mix of thermite and HMX we should have an energy of about 4.7 kJ/g -- below that of chips #3 and #4. How can this be?
To explain this, we must understand what is being measured and how. The explosives and thermite have, internal to them, their own oxidants. We include their oxygen in the weight we measured. If we measure heat from a burning hydrocarbon, for example, we DON’T include the weight of the oxygen in the air we use to burn it. Candle wax burning in air has about 10 times the energy/gram of thermite using this convention. What does this mean? It means that some, if not all, of the energy from the red chips is due to burning of the carbonaceous paint matrix in air.
Jones is vague about this problem and says on p27. “We suggest that the organic material in evidence in the red/gray chips is also highly energetic, most likely producing gas to provide explosive pressure.” What might that energetic material be? Jones has no clue. His team lacks the chemical knowledge to postulate a reasonable composition. It has no nitrogen, so it is not one of the explosives shown. It is energetic when burning in air. So is candle wax. Volatilized, it will produce gas but it does not seem to be otherwise energetic. How can this problem be resolved? What experiment must be done to show the possibility of thermite or some composite?
As I have stated above, thermite and explosives have their own oxidants built in. burning hydrocarbons do not. How can Jones discriminate between explosives, thermite and plain old burning paint?
He can re-run the DSC under an argon atmosphere. What a simple and elegant solution. Under argon, all the energy coming out will be from the thermite and its energetic additives. If there is no energy coming out, there is no thermite and all those contortions and obfuscations are for naught. Why wouldn’t Jones do this obvious experiment? Maybe he did and didn’t like the results
It demonstrates why there is millions of molten Iron spheres in the dust all across Manhattan.

Why stop there lets look at all the things Jones is on about in his "Extremely high temperatures during the World Trade Centre destruction" paper.
This is his list:
www.journalof911studies.com...
Every thing on that list is a byproduct of this machine. It's All there.
The cement kiln heats all the ingredients to about 2,700 degrees Fahrenheit in huge cylindrical steel rotary kilns lined with special firebrick. Kilns are frequently as much as 12 feet in diameter—large enough to accommodate an automobile and longer in many instances than the height of a 40-story building. The large kilns are mounted with the axis inclined slightly from the horizontal.
www.cement.org...
And everything on that list was mixed in with the portland cement in the fireproofing.
When the buildings collapsed the fireproofing turned to dust and released all of these byproducts.
All that is needed to disprove nanothermite is another source for the iron spheres, and there it is!
It's a rational explanation, so you obviously won't accept it.

I think it’s called an office fire, and office fires are much hotter?
Please cite a source where super Fe2O3 + 2 Al thermite ignites at a lower temperature than normal thermite. Cite a source how super Fe2O3 + 2 Al thermite is even ignited?

On a related note, in February 2012, I posted a letter from Rich Lee of the R. J. Lee Group at the James Randi Educational Forum (JREF). This company's post-9/11 report (2003) on WTC dust samples mentioned microscopic spheres of iron, which truthers have long maintained could only have been formed with thermite, thus proving their controlled demolition/inside job claim. Ron Wieck, who produces the internet debate program Hardfire, recently asked the R. J. Lee Group to clarify what they thought about the iron microspheres, and Rich Lee himself answered (in part) "What about the iron microspheres? The iron has a thin layer of rust flakes that can be easily removed by sticky tape. The iron is heated red hot or hotter and subjected to hurricane force blast furnace like wind. The iron flakes are liberated as small particles and some iron is vaporized. Like drops of water, the iron flakes form molten spheres that solidify and the fume also condenses into spheres, the most efficient geometrical form. … The formation of iron and other type spheres at temperatures obtainable by the combustion of petroleum or coal based fuels is not a new or unique process. These spheres are the same as iron and alumino-silicate spheres in the well-studied fly ash formed from contaminants in coal as it is burned in furnaces. – Rich Lee"
You ignore the high heat in the rubble, the millions of Iron spheres in the dust.
