"A colloid is a particle or liquid droplet less than one micrometer in diameter. Colloids may be organic or inorganic and may occur as solids or liquids. Because their small size produces very high surface area, colloids strongly influence soil surface chemistry, nutrient retention, and contaminant behavior."
