QuestionAnswer
➢ Composed of solid, liquid or gas particles in a continuous phase which can be a solid, liquid or gas. ➢ The particles of one substance is usually distributed or dispersed in another substance without dissolving or they do not combine to form a solution ➢ Particle size – 1nm – 0.5um or 500 nmCOLLOIDAL DISPERSION/SOL
➢ Has colloidal system consisting of a very finely subdivided liquid or solid dispersed and surrounded by gas ➢ The product depends upon the power of liquefied or compress gas to dispense their active ingredient into a finely dispersed mist, a foam or a semisolidAerosol
Types of Aerosol:• Space sprays – it has an active ingredient with a particle size of less than 50 um. Ex. Lysol • Surface sprays – 50-200um • Foams – much bigger in size, more than 200um. Ex. shaving cream
