    Study Notes

    Colloidal Systems

    • Colloidal materials form colloidal dispersions or sols with relative ease due to their affinity for the dispersion medium.

    Types of Colloidal Systems

    • Classified according to the interaction between the dispersed phase and dispersion medium.

    Lyophilic Colloids

    • Contain colloidal particles that interact with the dispersion medium to an appreciable extent.
    • Referred to as solvent-loving (lyophilic) colloids.
    • Three types of dispersed systems based on the size of the dispersed phase:
      • Molecular dispersions
      • Colloidal dispersions
      • Coarse dispersions
