Abstract

At a recent meeting of the International Symposium on Solution Chemistry I presented a paper dealing with aqueous solutions in which water was present not in excess but as one component of a supersaturated solution with polyhydroxy compounds. In response to a request from the Editor of this Journal I have submitted this article in which I outline my general interest in the subject and its importance as a new direction for solution chemists.
