Abstract

A colloidal system consists of two separate phases: a dispersed phase (or internal phase) and a continuous phase (or dispersion medium). The dispersed phase and the continuous medium can be in gas, liquid, and solid states. The dispersed-phase has a diameter of between approximately 1 and 1000 nm. Homogeneous mixtures with a dispersed phase in this size range may be called colloidal aerosols, colloidal emulsions, colloidal foams, colloidal suspensions, or hydrosols depending on varying combinations of dispersed phase and continuous phase.
