67. The existence of opposing forces in the system is the source of the difference between MC and other, nonpolymeric, physical gels. In the former, chain connectivity plays an important role in the late stages of the aging process, while in colloidal gels the constituents are not interconnected and dynamics is driven by attractive or repulsive interactions only. As a consequence, the form of the correlation function for nonpolymeric physical gels does not change with aging time.
