ქიმიის ტერმინთა განმარტებითი ლექსიკონი

Sedimentation of a solid material (a precipitate) from a liquid solution in which the material is present in amounts greater than its solubility in the liquid.

Note:

When precipitation occurs in sol-gel processing, sol particles have aggregated to a size where gravitational forces cause them to sink or float. Generally, aggregation arises from a change in the sol that reduces the interparticle repulsion.
