Thank you Andrei Blasko

I have notice that after 16 h of mixing in DI water, mix is hazy but without visible powder. After filtration (10 microns) the mix is more transparent. I attached the pic of mix before and after filtration.

However, after 24 h the mix is staring to be hazy again, and probably PEO is coming of from solution. Am I doing something wrong?
