Zusatztext This updated version remains as relevant and valuable now as did the first edition ?-J.R.A. Pearson! BP Institute! University of Cambridge! Journal of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers! Nov. 2008! Vol. 54! No. 11 Informationen zum Autor Clarence A. Miller, P. Neogi Klappentext Since the publication of the first edition of Interfacial Phenomena, the interest in interfaces and surfactants has multiplied, along with their applications. Experimental and theoretical advances have provided scientists with greater insight into the structure, properties, and behavior of surfactant and colloid systems. Emphasizing equilibrium phenomena, flow, transport, and stability, Interfacial Phenomena: Equilibrium and Dynamic Effects, Second Edition presents a concise and current summary of the fundamental principles governing interfacial interactions. This new edition features updated and expanded topics in every chapter. It highlights key experimental techniques that have expanded the scope of our understanding, such as in mass transfer, microstructure determination in colloidal dispersions, and surfactant-polymer interactions. Interfacial Phenomena, Second Edition reflects the progress scientists have made in understanding the surface chemistry and interfacial dynamics of colloid and surfactant systems. The book also illustrates the growing applicability of these systems in a variety of fields including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, detergents, paints, agricultural chemicals, and foods. Zusammenfassung Offers a summary of the governing principles in interfacial interactions, emphasizing equilibrium phenomena, flow, transport, and stability. This book features a chapter on mass transfer measurements and key experimental techniques for the determination of microstructure in colloidal dispersion and surfactant systems.
