Abstract
"Kieselsol," a generic name for an aqueous colloidal suspension of silicon dioxide, was first used in Germany as a fining agent in conjunction with gelatin during World War II, when tannin was unobtainable. It fell into disuse until recently, when a review of its physical and chemical characteristics indicated that it would be a useful and desirable substitute for tannin in wine and fruit-juice fining. Freshly fermented apple wine was employed in a comparison between tannin-gelatin and Kieselsolgelatin finings.
