Summary
A detailed investigation on the sol-gel transition of three lyophobic gels,viz., Aluminium Molybdate, Zirconium and Ferric Succinate gels, has been made by using the R. S. Krishnan colloid optical technique. Mechanism of the sol-gel transition and the various processes leading to the growth of the colloid particles as revealed by the above investigations have been discussed at length.
