Review of the work by P. P. v. Weymarn. " On the doctrine of the states of matter"
Abstract
Essay by v. Weymarn “On the Doctrine of the States of Matter” represents the first chapter of his conceived and partially already completed work on the structure of matter based on the data obtained by studying the so-called "colloidal" state of bodies. Weimarn's discovery of a universal method for obtaining all kinds of crystalline substances (crystalloids) in the so-called colloidal and amorphous states led him to propose that both states are inherent in all bodies and depend only on the degree of fragmentation of the substance, and therefore, on the relative development of the surface, and that, furthermore, there is no other difference between the crystalloid and colloidal-amorphous state of a body, and to attempt revise our ideas about the nature of matter, based on the above principles.
