Abstract
Many aggregation processes of colloidal particles take place in an aqueous phase. Thus, to ensure a detailed visualisation of the aggregation processes it is necessary to image the aggregates within this environment. Due to the size of the primary particles many of these processes can not be observed directly in light microscopy, as the resolution is too low. The aim of these studies is to show that by X-ray microscopy aggregation phenomena in aqueous phase can be observed directly.
