Preferred Label : colloidally stable;
IUPAC definition : Particles which do not aggregate at a significant rate: the precise connotation depends
on the type of aggregation under consideration. For example, a concentrated paint
is called stable by some people because oil and pigment do not separate out at a measurable
rate, and unstable by others because the pigment particles aggregate into a continuous
network.;
