An amorphous substance is any in which there is no long-range order over the positions of its constituent particles. These particles can be subatomic, atoms, ions, molecules, dust, crystallites, or grains. Amorphous substances can fall into the usual categories of solid, liquid, gas, or plasma. But some substances which are amorphous, such as sand are fluids.
