Chips measuring 0.5mm are not "nano". Why are you being so blatently false? The chip is actually 500,000 nanometers.

No fuses attached.
The planes were the fuses in the theory that I most recently subscribed to.

Wow, just when I thought it couldn't get any worse.
Pots and pans, torches and fire pits, video cameras and stove-tops. All combined with cut and paste copies of Jones' "paper" that give HIS opinions.
All this distraction and yet nothing has come out of it. Jones can clear this up by doing the proper test, yet he doesn't. Why don't you truthers question that? You ask the us "paid goverment shills" for evidence all the time to satisfy you 100%, and you can't do the same?
It starts real simple. Have a TRULY independent (this is what you guys want right, an independent investigation) qualified scientist run the test in the absence of air, on verified dust samples. Publish the results, and then let's have the discussion.
Until then, this is proof of nothing, and this thread title and it's claims are total bunk.

That's a good idea, an independant investigation and, redo his tests again. why
not e-mail Dr Jones and tell him yourself.
I mean you were very thorough in your thread as to how a passport can survive a plane crash, using the Steve Fossett crash as "The example" BTW did they ever find his body? To add, talk about the Kettle calling the Pot black!

CONCLUSION
The properties of the primer paint and the red/gray chips are inconsistent.
The red/gray chips cannot be the primer paint as it is characterized by NIST.

I can understand why you will need a videotape to believe that molten steel can cool below its freezing point while falling through air.
Or is it the part about molten steel forming a sphere while falling that you don't believe?
Maybe both?
It is new information to me that the WTC towers were only a few feet tall.

Below it's freezing point while falling a few feet?
Like conventional thermite, super thermite usage is hazardous due to the extremely high temperatures produced and the extreme difficulty in smothering a reaction once initiated.
Originally posted by pteridineJones knows that there was some combustion in the DSC. His quote from Page 28 "We observe that the total energy released from some of
the red chips exceeds the theoretical limit for thermite alone
(3.9 kJ/g). One possibility is that the organic material in the
red layer is itself energetic."

Jones knows this, and understands it. He was smart enough to acknowledge
this, and included it within his results.
He is smart enough to know that "stuff" that burns up in combustion is
TOO SLOW to create a narrow exotherm as shown in comparison to
the control sample.
The temperature peak and the time to reach peak temperatuer are
two entirely different things!
If you're still in the dark about this, there's no point debating you because
you just don't get it. You never will.
Combustion cannot create a transition in temperature FASTER than a known control sample of nano-thermite.
Once again, Jones (and many of us understand this) and therefore can
still claim that the additional heat considered through combustion has
absolutely NOTHING to do with proving/disproving a thermitic reaction
in the absence of air.
Originally posted by pteridineYou are confusing temperature rise during reaction or combustion with temperature scan rate. Those temperatures are the temperatures of the DSC furnace, not the temperature of the burn. The temperature rise of the burn is not measured, only heat flow into or out of the sample.

I'm not confusing anything; you're just not getting it.
Since day one I have been saying 430 degrees cannot form the spheres
and YOU must account for the additional heat to melt the iron.
The heat transferred in and out of the sample is directly related to the
amount of heat achieved during the reaction as well as the amount of
time (duration) the heat reaches that peak, and remains at a specific
temperature.
The graph we see in the charts is actually inverted to what you normally see in DSC graph testing. It is perhaps you that is the confused person.
