Depends on what you are electrolysing. Fibreglass wont stand up to strong alkali. Thats why I used non-woven polypropylene cloth (reusable supermarket shopping bags! :D ) in my water electrolyser (NaOH electrolyte).

What? ordinary shopping sacks are porous enough to pass ions? I know they turn to shit if you try to reuse them too much but I never thought they could be porous. How did you discover this if I may or should ask?

He's not talking about regular HDPE grocery bags. He's talking about the reusable kind that you can buy in the store sometimes.

"There must be no barriers to freedom of inquiry ... There is no place for dogma in science. The scientist is free, and must be free to ask any question, to doubt any assertion, to seek for any evidence, to correct any errors. ... We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it and that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. And we know that as long as men are free to ask what they must, free to say what they think, free to think what they will, freedom can never be lost, and science can never regress." -J.

MJP is correct. The checkout girl was rather upset when I told her what I wanted them for :D . Thought for a moment she was going to refuse to sell them to me!
