Principles of Colloid and Surface Chemistry

This work aims to familiarize students with the fundamentals of colloid and surface science, from various types of colloids and colloidal phenomena, and classical and modern characterization/measurement techniques to applications of colloids and surface science in engineering, technology, chemistry, physics and biological and medical sciences. "The Journal of Textile Studies" proclaims 'High praise from peers ...contains valuable information on many topics of interest to food rheologists and polymer scientists! [The book] should be in the libraries of academic and industrial food research organizations' and "Chromatographia" describes the book as 'an excellent textbook, excellently organised, clearly written and well laid out'.

"High praise from peers . . .contains valuable information on many topics of interest to food rheologists and polymer scientists. . ..should be in the libraries of academic and industrial food research organizations." ---Journal of Texture Studies ." . .the treatment is unique. The most striking, perhaps, is the introduction of short 'vignettes. . ..' which expand on the main point being made in the text. This is a fine revision of a fine book. Highly recommended." ---Journal of Dispersion Science and Technology ." . .an excellent textbook, excellently organised, clearly written and well laid out." ---Chromatographia "Controlled release scientists will find the book of major help in solving problems related with diffusion, sedimentation, osmosis, dispersion, colloidal suspensions, light scattering, surface tension, double-layer theory, electronkinetic phenomena and colloidal stability. . ..Recommended." ---Journal of Controlled Release
