Zsigmondy is necessarily highly incomplete, if not to say fragmentary, but should surely suffice to show how it pioneered the way and opened up new regions in a field of research which had so far been difficult of access, a field which must be recognized as having the very greatest importance for human knowledge.    From Wordnik.com.  [Nobel Prize in Chemistry 1925 - Presentation Speech] Reference

This theory, based on classical mechanics, helps to explain the behaviour of what are known as colloidal solutions, a behaviour which has been studied by Svedberg, Perrin, Zsigmondy and countless other scientists within the context of what has grown into a large branch of science, colloid chemistry.    From Wordnik.com.  [Nobel Prize in Physics 1921 - Presentation Speech] Reference

Within the rapid coagulation, as Zsigmondy found, the coagulation time is independent not only of the concentration of the electrolyte but also of its nature, whilst on the other hand, the threshold value and the rate within the range of slow coagulation are characteristic for each individual electrolyte.    From Wordnik.com.  [Nobel Prize in Chemistry 1925 - Presentation Speech] Reference
