What are Colloids?
• Macromolecules in solution
– < 1nm – 10 nm
• Particles dispersed in liquids
– < 1 nm – 10 µm
• > 20 nm turbid

Q
Static LS (SLS):
The information on
size is in the angle
function
Dynamic LS (DLS)
The information on
size is in the
fluctuation of the
scattering signal
(Brownian motion)
DLS - Stokes-Einstein-relation
• To calculate particle size:
• 𝑟 =R·𝑇
𝑫·6π·𝜂·NA
• r = particle radius; D = diffusion coefficient; R = gas constant; NA =
Avogadro‘s constant; = viscosity of continuous phase and T =
temperature
