Electrodispersion is the method to get metals in the colloidal form with the help of electricity in any suitable solvent.
Charge on sol particles is due to -
1. Electron captured by sol particles during electrodispersion of metals.
2. Preferential adsorption of ions from a solution or due to formulation of electrical double layer.
