Abstract
The melting points and crystallization temperatures of gallium nanoparticles in an aqueous dispersion were determined by an optical method tested previously on n-alkanes. The aqueous dispersion of gallium was prepared by ultrasonic dispersion of a surfactant-free water–gallium mixture heated above the melting point of gallium. The size of particles in the dispersion was found by dynamic light scattering. Destabilization of the dispersions heated above the melting point of gallium was experimentally detected.
