THE FRACTAL PARTICLES OF IRON(III) HYDROXONITRATE - FROM SOLUTION TO SOLID-STATE

Recent works show that the concept of fractal dimension turns out to b e quite useful in description of colloidal objects. However, there are few data on the physico-chemical behavior of fractal colloidal partic les. In the present work, the fractal dimensions of colloidal particle s in solutions of iron hydroxonitrate and in the products of sublimati on drying of the solutions are compared. This paper is the first in th e series of articles devoted to the behavior of fractal precursors in solid-state processes.
