Abstract
J. W. MCBAIN surveys present knowledge of the so-called colloidal electrolytes. He believes that ionic micelles begin to form in very dilute solution and increase steadily with the concentration of simple ions; lamellar micelles arise from ions-pairs and higher aggregates, and produce X-ray patterns in the solution as soon as they have grown sufficiently large.
