THE PROCESS OF MAKING A CONCENTRATED AQUEOUS COLLOIDAL SILICA SOL, HAVING AN AVERAGE PARTICLE SIZE WITHIN THE RANGE OF 6 TO 10 MILLIMICRONS AND A CONDUCTIVITY OF AT LEAST 700 MICROMHOS WHICH COMPRISES ADJUSTING THE PH OF AN SCIDIC SOL HAVING AN AVERAGE PARTICLE METAL BASE, SAID ACIDIC SOL HAVING AN AVERAGE PARTICLE SIZE NO GREATER THAN 4 MILLIMICRONS AND A SILICA CONCENTRATION OF FROM 2% TO 6% BY WEIGHT , HEATING THE ALKALI TREATED SOL TO BETWEEN 9/*F. AND 200*F., UNDER CONDITIONS WHEREBY SUBSTANTIALLY NO WATER IS LOST BY EVAPORATION, AND DURING THE HEATING STEP MAINTAINING THE PH BETWEEN 8.3 AND 8.8 BY ADDITION OF SAID ACIDIC SOL UNTIL THE PH REACHES AN EQUILIBRIUM BETWEEN 8.3 AND 8.8 AND THEN CONCENTRATING THE RESULTANT SOL TO A SILICA CONCENTRATION BETWEEN 12% AND 28% BY WEIGHT.
