The main parameter of a colloidal solution is the size of the particles, that is, the particle size. However, there are many methods to obtain the particle size distribution, leading to various results.

​

So, which method yields the correct particle size?

​

Are the results obtained by each method incompatible with each other?

​

The following material explains how to compare results of particle sizes obtained by various methods, specifically density distribution, volume distribution, and number distribution.
