The preparation of particles of uniform size, shape, and composition has been of interest to colloid chemists and has received serious attention in the ceramic processing community recently. I interest in making monodispersed sols is not based solely on esthetic appeal of such systems but has evolved from high tech applications which place stringent requirements on the properties of ceramic components and thus on starting powders. Uniform particle size and shape are also essential for the evaluation of validity of various sintering models as well as optical, magnetic and electrokinetic properties of colloidal systems developed assuming uniform particle size and shape.
