a. Multimolecular colloids: The colloids in which the colloidal particles consist of aggregates of atoms or small molecules. The diameter of the colloidal particle formed is less than 1 nm.

b. Macromolecular colloids: These are the colloids in which the dispersed particles are themselves large molecules . Since these molecules have dimensions comparable to those of colloids particles, their dispersions are called macromolecular colloids, e.g., proteins, starch and cellulose form macromolecular colloids.

c. Associated colloids (Micelles): Those colloids which behave as normal, strong electrolytes at low concentrations,but show colloidal properties at higher concentrations due to the formation of aggregated particles of colloidal dimensions. Such substances are also referred to as associated colloids.
