Marshall: So adsorption in the ultraviolet range will reflect small particles and the sol will appear clear. Particles that adsorb in the infrared range will be much larger and the sol will appear clear. Do I have that right? Roger -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
