Abstract :
The limits of particle aggregation in high magnetic fields are described. These limits are determined, for any given colloid-field system, by electrochemical factors and by particle size. The latter is discussed in terms of thermal diffusion processes at the lower size limit and by the influence of differential gravitational settling in larger particle systems.
