Preferred Label : floc;
IUPAC definition : When a sol is colloidally unstable the formation of aggregates is called coagulation
or flocculation. Some authors distinguish between coagulation and flocculation, the
latter implying the formation of a loose or open network which may or may not separate
macroscopically. The loose structure formed in this way is called a floc.;
