Abstract: Aqueous NaCl solutions with different concentrations have been investigated by dynamic scattering of laser radiation. It is experimentally shown that these solutions contain scattering particles with a wide size distribution in a range of ~10 – 100 nm. The experimental results indirectly confirm the existence of quasi-stable gas nanobubbles in the bulk of aqueous ionic solutions.

Keywords: dynamic light scattering, photon correlation spectroscopy, gas nanobubbles, aqueous electrolyte solutions.
