Abstract
DR. M. E. LAING McBAIN and Prof. J. W. McBain found about ten years ago that several properties, for example, the conductivity, lowering of vapour pressure, concentration of sodium ion, etc., of the sols and gels of sodium oleate are identical; and from this they came to the conclusion that the colloidal particles in the two states are identical in nature and amount.
