Colloidal particles exhibit diverse sizes and shapes, ranging from nanoparticles to microparticles with spherical, elongated, or irregular geometries. Understanding the size and shapes of colloidal particles is crucial for designing and tailoring their properties for specific applications in fields such as nanotechnology, materials science, and biomedicine. Classification of Colloids Colloids …
Classification of suspension
Suspensions can be classified based on various criteria, including the nature of the dispersed phase, the dispersion medium, and the intended use. Here are some common classifications of suspensions: 1. Based on Particle Size Coarse Suspensions: These suspensions contain relatively large particles that are visible to the naked eye. They …
