Sol

  • A sol is a colloid made out of very small particles in a continuous liquid medium. Sols are stable and show the Tyndall effect.
  • Sol is the liquid state of a colloid solution.
  • The sol can be converted to gel by cooling.  
  • Dehydration of sol is relatively very easy.  
  • Sol has a low viscosity.    
  • Sol is usually classified further to lyophobic and lyophilic.
  • The sol does not possess a definite structure.
  • The dispersion medium of the sol may be water (hydrosol) or alcohol (alcohol).  
  • Blood, pigmented ink, cell fluids, paint, milk of magnesium and mud.

Colloid/Gel

  • A gel is a complex fluid consisting of two or more phases typically composed of a solid dispersed in a liquid.
  • Gel can be described as solid or semi-solid (jelly-like) stage of a colloidal solution.
  • The gel can be converted to sol by heating.
  • Dehydration of gel is not possible.  
  • The gel has a high viscosity.
  • Gel does not have a further classification.
  • The gel has a honeycomb-like structure.  
  • The dispersion medium of the gel will be hydrated colloid particles.
  • Fruit jelly, cooked gelatin jelly, fog, mist, ice cloud, hair sprays.
