We report the growth and structure of fractally rough silicate particles in solution. Using small-angle x-ray scattering, we find fractal surfaces both in solution and in a porous solid made from the solution precursor. Finally, we develop a simple model which both is consistent with silicate chemistry and generates fractally rough structures.
