Abstract

The samples of Ludox colloidal silica, previously studied by light scattering, were examined in electron microscope. A considerable aggregation of particles was noted in solutions. The aggregates were efficiently removed by centrifugation, as was previously indicated by the decrease in dissymmetry of light scattered by the same sols. From the electron micrographs the distribution of particle diameters was evaluated and several averages of particle size calculated and compared with the light scattering results. A very good agreement between the two sets of results was found.
